    The further along you are the less I suggest you lift. If you are in shape and lift say your 2 year old on a daily basis I would say lift no more than that. You have to remember not to overdo things the further along you get. Exercise yes, heavy lifting no.

    It is all a matter of what your body was used to lifting prior to the pregnancy and using proper lifting techniques.

    If you have a job that requires lifting, I suggest you consult your OB.
