Strenuous job and pregnant!
Strenuous job and pregnant!
I work as a home health aide but in a facility. I do not want to leave my job because I like it, and in reality my fiancé and I need both of our incomes for as long as possible. My concern is I work with the elderly at job place of employment. They have a lot of falls and helping them with activities of daily living. I feel like as I progress in my pregnancy that I might potentially get hurt. Is this a concern I should bring up to my doctor? I don't want to harm my baby or myself at all while working. HELP PLEASE! thanks in advance.

I'm also a Cna in a facility, talk to your doctor if your not feeling comfortable. I was limited to not do complete lifts and then on light duty @ 5 months, take it easy and do not do anything your uncomfortable with.

The issue is there is only a total of 3 of us to 55+ residents. Between our med pass and ADL's we wouldn't be able to assist all residents. I don't know if it also makes a difference that I had a LEEP done about a year ago and they took out 7mm of my uterus.
