to think that pregnant or not, she was being lazy and insensitive

We were helping friends, a married couple with one dc, move house this weekend, sorting and hefting boxes etc. They were moving from rented to rented, so we've known about the move since before Christmas and promised to help. The wife sat in the house/car/van the ENTIRE time, refused to lift a single box, or sit on the floor, or do anything at all really, due to the fact that she is 9 weeks pregnant.

I am 15 weeks pregnant, but apparently it's OK for me to move HER stuff because I'm 'out of the danger zone' I have actually suffered a second trimester loss at further gestation than I am now - and she knows that. She has never suffered a loss. Not that it should matter anyway...

AIBU to be pissed off with her - and with her husband that seemed to think that this was decent behaviour?

YANBU. I moved house at 9 weeks pg and was so ill I just laid on the sofa and tried not to puke. We had hired movers though, and DH helped them and told them where things needed to go. I never would have asked a pregnant friend who'd had a late miscarriage to swan around lifting all my stuff for me!
