lift small dig got a pinch in belly

I am 20wks and I lifted my 27lb dog for the first time and felt a small pinch in the center of my belly. Is it normal to feel these little pinches when you do something like that?

    There's really no way of knowing whether the feeling was caused by picking up the dog. If it concerns you, just don't do it again. I'm sure everything is fine.

    Its probably normal, but pay attention to baby movements (if you are getting them) and check with the doctor if you are concerned. I get all kinds of weird movements, pinches, almost funny-bone like feelings, etc... quite often when carrying my 26 lb 2-yr-old. So far so good...

    I will say though that I am used to it. I wouldn't recommend doing it much if you aren't used to it. General recommendation during pregnancy is not to do anything strenuous that your body is not already used to doing.

    I have to pick up my 28 pound toddler all the time and almost always feel a little pull in the belly. I think it's muscles stretching. Just be careful and lift with your legs not back!
