Your fetus is protected by the amniotic fluid so bending down wont harm your fetus. It will just make you feel uncomfortable. Also, you can Google on what can or not harm your pregnancy. So many sites to see that will help

during 2nd trimester I asked the gynae and she advised me to avoid squatting and bending down. Unless you really need to pick things up else get hubby to help you out.

I have been bending down to pick up or count things due to work. For short period of time is ok. Just make sure to stop if you feel uncomfortable.

I was not sure about that. there for i did it rarely during my pregnancy
