How bad is it for me to keep carrying my 2 year old?

Question

She weighs 25lb and I live on a 3rd floor walk up which means I carry her up and down 3 flights of stairs several times a day. Other than it now making me tired, can it affect me in any other way?

Answer

No youre fine. They say you can continue to do activities that your body is used to as long as you take precautions. Just listen to your body and if it doesnt feel right, take a break or just stop. 
I have two toddlers each over 30lbs and I occasionally carry them together. Not nearly as much as you do but i can definitely tell when its too much and i just put them down. My youngest gets upset that i cant hold him as much but I usually just try to distract him

Answer

I carry my 2 year old and she is 33lbs. At this age you don’t always have a choice (I’m 30 weeks) I do tell her no if I’m in pain or overly exhausted

Answer

Nope you're most likely fine! I'm in pain from the same situation only my son is 34 pounds and 2 years old!! It's painful and hurts, but of your body is used to it, there's usually no harm in it, my doctor said. Gotta keep doing what you have to do with little ones in toe!

Answer

Nope.  I still back wear (baby wear) my almost 3 year old.  He loves it, and better for my back than carrying him.  He’s around the same size as your 2 year old, he’s 27lbs and will turn 3 in June, he’s just tiny.

Answer

No you’ll be okay!
If anything, it’s good for your body 😊

Answer

No you’ll be fine.
