you're not stable even if you feel you are, your joints and ligaments are much softer now with the pregnancy hormone relaxin and you can strain much easier. also, if you lift something heavy it can put stress on your back or round ligament around your belly even if you're not using it and it can put your baby at risk too of injury or late miscarriage, don't risk it! it's other people's jobs for the next 6 months or so, let them do it :)
it really depends on your doctor and fitness level! I went into my first pregnancy a fitness model so the doctor approved up to 60lbs or what I was comfortable with!!! this pregnancy I am much less fit but was told nothing over 50lbs! my sister was told nothing over 25lbs at all!
see thats what i dont get.. my doctor didnt tell me anything.. and i have asked him like do i have any restrictions well working and he was like NOPE YOU ARE GOOD. .. -_- @autumnrae

What is considered "heavy" even? I have twin toddlers so it is much harder this time around...
