How do you pick up dog poo?

Have you got a special technique?

I'm 33 weeks and staying active so squatting to pick stuff up isn't impossible, but it's not easy and only going to get worse. Some things I'm picking up with my feet and yoga-posing up to my hands.

Particularly struggling with dog poo I think because the grounds a bit slippy, and I feel like once I'm down there it's a game of not wobbling over and ended up either on said poo or turtling on my back.

Would a poo grabber help?

If you really must, I'd try and get the dog to go near a wall or something you can hold onto, but actually I think dog walks and related poo should maybe become you partner/ babies dad's responsibility for the last month. You're already growing an entire human, and will be dealing with poo a lot in the coming years, so don't feel guilty for delegating.

Thanks, poo grabber is a great idea, I've not seen these before!

DH is doing the vast majority of walks now, but occasionally he's away for day and also I do still want to have some adventures with my furry-bub before my human one arrives.

With great difficulty!
