Country chroes gotta get done

I'm a country girl and I typically busy myself with cutting wood (esp this time of year) mowing grass, etc. You get the point. At what point do you slow down that lifestyle??

I am the same.  Past two years I got pregnant in sept/oct...deer season.  I ended up miscarrying twice because I over exerted myself hunting.  This time I got pregnant in feb, no hunting and now I am 32 weeks.  Coincidence...I think not.

I'm the same way and thought I could do everything but a few months ago I was prego and working on our new house I was helping my husband put in a septic system so I was running around back in forth lifting 60lbs pipes ( not that heavy) but rather way a few days after that I started bleeding went to the ER and they said it was a miscarriage.... Soooo as one hard worker to another take it easy whenever you can..

I am a big time weight lifter. I was told that you can keep going if you can handle it and back off a little as you come closer to your due date. Just be careful!

My family won't let me do anything. And I'm 17 weeks. But ask your doctor.
