[QUOTE="bigbrownhen, post: 800561, member: 20495"] I was pregnant as a driver, so it may be a little different as a pre-loader, but my doctors advice was use careful lifting methods and you should be fine. Your body is used to the physical labor. You will be surprised how much you use your abdomen to handle packages. Now when it comes to over weights, get some help. Most people aware of your situation will be glad to help out with them. I worked up to my last month. I was off a total of 11 weeks. I went on short term disability, but check with your areas FMLA laws and contract to see what is available for you. Depending on how your pregnancy goes will determine how long you will be off. If you have complications and end up with a high risk pregnancy, then expect to be off most of it. Best of luck to you starting your family. [/QUOTE]
