So I can't do what now?

who else has questions about what you can or can't do, eat, enjoy and so forth? All worth it... Esp if certain chores are off the table :)

    I'm doing it all and eating it all (except raw fish/meat) right now.... I'm not giving myself any restrictions unless my doc says so. Carry on as normal!

    I'm wondering if cleaning the chicken coop will be passed to my hubby... I know cat litter is a no-no (no cats here) and cleaning the bunny cage is fine... But chickens... I'm at a loss.

    DH told me today that I'm not allowed to carry my backpack (the one that holds my laptop and a couple notebooks - I'm self-employed and work at local coffee shops a lot.) I was reassuring him that, while I'm sure I should clean it out to lighten the load a bit, I'm fairly certain carrying less than 10-15lbs is fine (open to correction if I'm wrong.)

    @pastedfragments my understanding is you can pretty much carry weight you are used to (Within reason) at least until 3rd trimester. I haul my 27 lbs ds all over the place and have no intention of stopping anytime soon.

    I'd be in trouble if I couldn't tote my 23lb and 33lb kids around.

    You're fine to carry on normal activities, given you have a normal pregnancy and your OB hasn't told you otherwise.

    However... if you don't WANT to clean the chicken coop (because who would?) then I'd say you're within your pregnant right to have DH take on that task.
