Re: lifting
I've read no more than 40lb.
I look at this way, there are a lot of PG woman with number 2, you mean to tell me they are not picking up their toddlers. I dont think so. Just use caution.

Re: lifting
I'm no help either because I had bleeding after doing too much capet steamcleaning.... since then I've avoided heavy stuff.
as the pregnancy goes on, it becomes obvious that you shouldn't be lifting, becuase your abs are so stretched that your stomach hurts from doing one 'sit-up' (aka getting out of bed!)
I think I've heard #'s like nothing over 20 lbs.... I could be imagining things though...
