Interesting, that it is not only an OW”N after all. Now I would also like to know if there is an actual halacha (not minhag) for a pregnant woman to not go to a levaya. If so, is it the entire levaya or just the actual cemetery kevura that is the problem? What happens in the case of the death of a paren – is it assur for the pregnant woman to attend her parent’s funeral? Or is this out of concern that she will be too emotional and it could be bad for the unborn child?
