Re: No Squatting! I get it!
Its so hard not for me to do that at my job, and I tell the sous chef and head chef its getting alittle hard for me to bend down and clean at 6months preggo. And I get very little help after I am told don't worry about it. Please I work with pigs.

Jess - you'll find as you get further along, many things you were able to do pre-pregnant or even early pregnant, as small as they might be, you will not be able to do! That's what husbands are for!

That's awful! I leaned over cleaning my bathtub yesterday and I had a horrible lower back ache for the entire day.

I do get the aches and shortage of breath coming up. I do have some of the guys to grab boxes in the freezes for me and lift cambro's to heavy for me. Anywhere from 30 lbs or more is where I say no.

I heard we shouldn't lift more than 25 pounds. Maybe you can get a doctor's note?

I didn't know about the doctors note. The dishwashers have been really good with me, they are glad to help out if I ask them. I am not afraid to ask for help. At this point I tell the chef's in charge my pregnacy is more important then this job. I know HR does make sure I am happy and not overdoing things to cover their BUTTS. Thank you again for your concern.
