Weight limit?

My Dr never told me and I keep forgetting to ask, but what is the weight limit you can lift in the last month? Healthy pregnancy and no complications or anything. I just have a lot of rearranging/moving stuff to do now that my dad gave me his old place and my boyfriend works 15 hr days and sleeps about the rest of the time by the time he gets home and he's on this job for the next 21 days and I'm due in less than a month so I really need to get cracking.

I always thought it was around 30 lbs.  It all depends what it is and how you are lifting it though. 30 lbs if you are performing a dead lift from ground up. My daughter is 45 lbs and I carry her around but I've been doing that since before I was pregnant and that's another thing to keep in mind :) if it's something you'd always lift move then it should be okay. Just remember to lift with your legs and not your back

If it's a healthy pregnancy there really isn't a weight limit. ..just listen to your body!
