    Lifting (Alan?)

    Ok here i go again.

    I went to ikea yesterday with a friends DH and got the set of draws that we wanted. i needed to help him lift them from his car to my lounge room (i dont know why i didnt leave it in the car post for when DH got home, and am kicking myself since)

    so after i helped carry the box weighing a total of 36kg backwards up the stairs, then went and got some lunch afterward i lay down and felt a really hard lump on my right side (i think this was the baby)

    I have heard that you shouldnt lift during pg, but am i going to be OK? more to the point is my baby?

    I went to bed at 7 as i was stressing and thoughts it best to sleep it off rather than get into a tiss.

    I have had a few pains and have felt baby kick since.

    I guess im worries as when i look at Dr Google i read things like it can reduce oxygen to the baby and cause brain damage? im sure i was talking and breathing as i was carrying it. It also says that it may cause the placenta to come away?????

    I think it was more of an award shape and the fact i was walking backwards up the stairs didnt help.

    should i be worried? i am seeing my Dr on Monday
