Most of the time when you miscarry its not cuz of anything you do, the primary cause is genetic malformations that aren't conducive to life. Heavy lifting won't cause a miscarriage but as you get bigger it can cause back problems. Other things that can cause a miscarriage are accidents/ trauma or severe acute infection... You do need to watch what you eat though.
