The stress and labor of moving to a new house or apartment are often linked with miscarriages and premature labor. As I have pointed out previously, neither the psychological or emotional demands of such a move, or physical stress of lifting and carrying will, by themselves, trigger a miscarriage. However, it is obviously advisable, particularly if you have miscarried before, to avoid any heavy lifting or unnecessary stress. This is not one of those times to prove you are equal to men, or other women for that matter. Sit back and organize the activity from the sidelines.
