Ok so I started exercising but this issue is buggering me. Doctor told me not to "lift heavy objects" as it's a generic pregnancy rule, but what does that mean exactly? I used 2 pound dumbbells while exercising, does that count? Or do they mean housework stuff like lifting milk jars and pushing sofas?
Everytime I touch a dumbbell I get a side eye from my DH, whereas the pregnant ladies in videos are working with 5 pounds in each hand? This is getting annoying lol
