The arrival of a new baby is a momentous occasion, filled with joy and excitement. Malaysian celebrity Emma Maembong recently experienced this joy for the second time as she welcomed her newest bundle of joy into the world.
Fans and well-wishers flooded her social media accounts with congratulatory messages, expressing their happiness and excitement for the growing family.
However, amidst the messages of congratulations, observant netizens quickly noticed something that raised their eyebrows. They expressed concern over Emma Maembong’s decision to carry her first child and also to place him on her lap while sitting cross legged on the floor despite still being new in her post-pregnancy phase during her 2nd newborn’s “cukur jambul” ceremony, as viewed in a video shared on her Instagram.
“Don’t carry your toddler or sit cross legged, sister”
“Sister Emma, why are you carrying the elder one when you just gave birth? Why are you sitting cross-legged with your son on your lap. Sorry for being overly concerned, but I worry about all the women who engage in such acts.”
“I felt so scared looking at Emma carrying her son and sitting cross-legged.”
“I was the one who felt super scared while Emma was so chill, carrying her first son, the stomach is sensitive after pregnancy.”
One clueless netizen asked in the comment section, “Why can’t she (carry her son or sit cross legged)?”
In response to the comment, another netizen replied, “It is not advisable to lift heavy objects. Women’s wombs are weak during post-pregnancy and there is a risk of them prolapsing.”
Netizens’ concerns stem from a genuine desire to ensure Emma Maembong’s safety and promote a culture of post-pregnancy care.
