Can’t nails be done if there is a pregnant woman at home?

1. Door. Pregnant women should never hammer nails into the door. In Feng Shui, doors are often important items to ward off evil spirits and avoid filth. Doors are often guarded by gods such as door gods, which can prevent dirty things from entering the room to a certain extent. However, if you hammer nails on the door, it will easily scare away the door god, and the door will lose its function of blocking dirt. Bad gas will easily enter the room, which will have an impact on the health of pregnant women.

2. On the wall. If there is a pregnant woman at home, it is also best not to hammer nails into the wall. There is a saying in Feng Shui that if someone in the family is pregnant, there must be a fetal god in the house to protect her. The fetal god refers to the god who protects pregnant women and their unborn babies. And sharp objects like nails would offend the gods. If you hammer nails into the wall, it is disrespectful to the fetal god and is likely to have a very negative impact on the health of the fetus.

3. Bedside. Pregnant women must not drive nails into the bedside. It is generally believed that sharp objects such as nails carry strong evil spirits and should not appear in the bedroom, especially at the head of the bed. Driving nails at the head of the bed will reduce the sleep quality of the residents and cause heart palpitations. In serious cases, it will damage the health of the residents. Driving nails into the bedside is also very harmful to pregnant women and fetuses.

What does it mean if you hammer nails at home during pregnancy?

Folklore believes that hammering nails on the walls, furniture, doors and windows of a pregnant woman's room will hurt the fetus and affect the normal development of the fetus. It even turns into "feticide".
