A member asked:

My sister had a missed miscarriage 5 months ago..now she is pregnant 4 weeks.. what things shouldn't she do to be safe? besides lifting heavy things

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See her OB: She needs to see her OB. They may want to check hormone levels to make sure everything is ok. Lifting does not make a difference, so she doesn't need to worry about that.
