Check with Dr or nurse who knows how they should be done for you.

Thank

The best way is be taught correctly . This is done by your Gyn/ uro/doc who will teach you and check to see if you are doing it correctly and also check you for any prolapse. It is not the repetitive lifting but the amount of weight lifted which can cause problems. Good luck
