Is It Safe Of Joining For Job And Travelling During 16th Week Of Pregnancy?

Is it safe to join office in 16th week of pregnancy. The job is of Software Engineer and total distance is 13 Km one way. Also, we live on 3rd floor and would need to use stairs as there is no lift facility. The 1st trimister ultrasound shows low lying placentea

HI,
Thanks for the query.
Actually to travel up & down 13 Km daily for a job does not seem practicable( even in normal pregnancy)...with special attention to 3 floors climbing, specially with a low lying placenta.
Mostly such placenta moves up in uterus with advanced pregnancy.. still it's better to confirm placental position reverted to normal before you take such drastic step.
Even if the placenta gets normal in position, you should shift to the place where the job is temporarily.
Thanks.
