My dog is 50 pounds and can't walk up steps so i carry her i'm 12 weeks pregnant is there a time where i should stop doing this?

Yes: You should stop when you cannot carry the dog with 100% balance - and I mean 100% - the worry is a fall in the 2nd or 3rd trimester. Soon as you are shaky, quit until after delivery.
