I know I've heard you arent supposed to life anything heavy while, pregnant...but can someone explain to me what exactly happens when you do? Or why you dont want to do this?
i asked my doctor since i was still lifting heaviy weights at the gym, and didnt want to stop. he said it was no danger to the baby, but to our backs. since we have more of some hormone that allows our ligaments to relax and us to deliver a baby, we're at more of a risk for injury. i lifted pretty heavy wieghts until last week, but now I have given up until I deliver- 3 more days!
Thank you so much!! I did some moving over the weekend. Didnt really have a lot of help available. And when help finally arrived, they were pretty much not letting me do anything. So I was a little worried what type of damage I could have caused! AND YES....My back really hurt afterwards!! Wond be doing that anymore.
Congrats and making it through the long journey!!! And best of luck during delivery!!!
