How Much Should I Be Lifting ?
Posted: 09-20-03 18:40pm

I am 6 weeks pregnant and everything is going well, I had a miscarriage 3 months ago so I am very concerned everytime I sneeze, breath or lift something. My husband is waiting for a back operation so I do everything around the house including all house work, looking after the pets kids and bringing in the wood. How much am I supposed to be lifting without causing me to have another miscarriage ?

Dont lift too muck. 10-15 is the max. No more than that. Itll put too much strain on you.

Thanx nikki, I wasn't sure, and no one else seemed to have a clue.
