According to Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, everyday physical activities aren't a cause for concern. In fact, moderate exercise during pregnancy, with your doctor's approval, can help promote a healthy pregnancy. However, physical demands can put some workers at risk. These include lifting heavy objects and standing for long periods of time.
