Dear Friend, there is no such criterean for weight lifting while someone is pregnant. It depends on her health and type of weight she lifts e.g. If a female is weak by physical condition (already suffering from some disease, health illness, underweight etc) she must avoid lifting even a small house hold water tub as it can affect the fetus. Secondly, the style of lifting the weight is also important e.g. bending to toes and atonce lifting the weight can cause backache or damage back bone. The best answer to this confusing question can be given by the doctor after looking the physical condition of the pregnant lady. So until that, avoid lifting any type of weight. waseemsafder@hotmail.com
