Question 11.6.10: Death and Burial: Can pregnant women attend a funeral?
Answer:
It is Jewish tradition that a pregnant woman not attend a funeral. The
exception would be one of the seven relatives who one is obligated to
mourn (father, mother, sister, brother, son, daughter, spouse). A
pregnant woman would traditionally remain outside the fence/gates of
the cemetery.
