A member asked:

I tend to put strain on my stomach when i lift my toddler. can lifting my 30 pound toddler cause placenta abrubtion?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No, unless...: A normal placenta will not abrupt from lifting 30 pounds. However, if you have had any bleeding during the pregnancy or have any known placental conditions, such as a partial or full placenta previa, then would not lift anything over 10 pounds. Congratulations on your pregnancy!
