I was helping my parents unload some files ...they don't know yet that I'm pregnant and it was not the best time to tell them I did my best to do as little lifting as possible.....how much is ok lifting? I'm 6 weeks

    I've heard no more then 15 to 20. I work at a job where I was tearing our old metal fixtures and replacing them for a remodel and when I got to my 3rd month my boss told me to relax on it im used to that kind if work so my body was ok with it at first but if you haven't been doing it for 7 months prior like me then just do what your body is used to doing but talk to your doc to and don't strain your stomach too much.
