My work requires me to do heavy lifing? Will it lead to miscarriage?

How heavy is it? It would be best to avoid heavy lifting as far as possible. That being said, even when I was full term, I sometimes had to carry my 13.5kg elder daughter when she was crying. But generally, try not to overexert too much

Try to avoid:) You’ll need to speak to your boss. And if no other work is assigned to you.. then you might really have to consider changing jobs. I came to realise that no job is worth the life of my babies.
