This may not be the first time you've heard of restrictions on sitting blocking doors. Since we were little, our parents probably told us that girls shouldn't be sitting at the door. In fact, sitting blocking the door while pregnant is also a taboo. You may think this is just a myth. But, is it true?
When you are pregnant, some beliefs hold that you are not allowed to sit blocking doors. Most say that sitting in your doorway will make it harder for your baby to have a baby later, making it even longer. But in fact it is only myth. There has not been any literature or research that supports that sitting in the doorway can complicate the birth of the baby.
But why shouldn't you sit blocking the door when you're pregnant?
Sitting blocking an open door will actually increase your potential for exposure to airborne diseases, or as they are commonly known as airborne disease . Especially if one of your family members or someone who lives around you is exposed to the disease. You can catch it even if you just breathe normally.
An open door will support the spread of the virus airborne disease , flu for example. When someone who has been exposed to the flu virus sneezes, the back of their throat will produce 40,000 tiny particles that then fall at a speed of 200 miles / hour. Most of these tiny particles are smaller than the size of a human hair, so they cannot be seen with the "naked" eye.
When particles have landed on a surface, the virus will still survive. When the particles land on the paper material, the virus will still last for several hours while the virus can last up to several days, when the particles land on the surface of plastic, aluminum and the like.
A University of Philadelphia fluid flow observer revealed that opening the door would then cause most of the small particles that had fallen to be pushed by the wind and followed when someone passed past the tiny particles. When the virus is inhaled through the nose, it will select one cell to enter and finally begin the process of multiplying itself.
The process of self-propagation of this virus will not automatically infect the human body. Julian Tang, a clinical virologist, said that the human body's immune system has a protective system to deal with this condition. But unfortunately, pregnancy is a moment where the mother's endurance is at its lowest, making the mother vulnerable to infection with diseases.
Also, sitting in the doorway has the potential to catch a cold. A practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, Angela Tian Zu, said that, when your body is in prime condition, it has the ability to protect itself from wind, heat, and cold temperatures. But it's different when your immune power is weak. Even a combination of these conditions can cause you to feel headaches.
