Research backs that heavy lifting is safe for pregnant women!!!!!
This is for any other research-loving mamas out there. Current evidence-based practice is now providing proof that lifting heavy while pregnant is SAFE for the baby. For a graduate school student and new mama like me, this is extremely exciting, and I just wanted to share the study (linked below).
If anyone tells you not to lift weights (like my undereducated OBGYN did), send them this link. https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/bjsports/59/3/159.full.pdf
