I believe most pregnant women know that after pregnancy, it is best not to lift heavy objects, not to work too hard, and to maintain good rest. This is what doctors will advise. But in today's society, it is impossible to completely avoid work, life, and carrying things after pregnancy. So, how many pounds of things can be carried during pregnancy?
Firstly, everyone's physique and strength are different, and the specific amount of weight that can be lifted should be judged according to one's own situation. During the early stages of pregnancy, it is important to pay special attention to changes in one's living environment and daily dietary health. The first two to three weeks of pregnancy are a crucial time, and pregnant women should not engage in excessive exercise. They can carry small items, but they should not be too heavy or carried for too long, in order to prevent muscle strains that may lead to miscarriage.
Pregnant women can easily experience bleeding or even miscarriage by lifting heavy objects during the early (first three months) and late (last three months) stages of pregnancy. Because when lifting heavy objects, pregnant mothers need to exert force on their waist and abdomen, which may cause uterine contractions, leading to bleeding or miscarriage. So when you need to lift heavy objects, lift them yourself if you can, don't try to be brave if you can't lift them, and seek help from people around you in a friendly manner.
In addition, pregnant women should pay attention to the regularity of their daily routine during pregnancy, avoid staying up late, control their diet, and maintain a reasonable and balanced nutrition. Before lifting heavy objects, be sure to identify shoes, road surfaces, obstacles, etc., and be careful not to fall; When lifting, keep your back straight and bend your knees to lift the object.
