1. Sitting cross-legged in no way affect the childbearing, if we are talking about the usual seat on a chair or computer no more than half an hour. Large vessels supplying the uterus and other pelvic organs, are deep, so everyday postures do not affect the general circulation. In addition, a lot of blood vessels, and if there's one pressed, the blood is passed through the other.
2. Pants and jeans in the smaller veins and unborn children have no effect, because the large veins and internal organs, which are necessary for the development of the child, as we have learned, are deep. Small linen and clothes cause more discomfort than some health problems because the pressure falls on the pelvis, not the authorities. So skinny jeans on fertility is not affected, but have something to rub.
