What to know or do

What changes the answer
- Consent, comfort, infection exposure and the activity involved
- Bleeding, pain, fluid loss, placenta or preterm-birth concerns
- Any individual restriction or treatment plan from maternity care

When to get individual help
Check the exact item or situation with a doctor, midwife, pharmacist or relevant clinician; the name of a broad category is not enough for a personal decision.
