Question

There are times when I go out with my husband during the days we are prohibited, and I need help lifting the child's stroller up the stairs. Is it permissible for my husband to help me?

Answer

Shalom Rav

A husband and wife are prohibited from lifting an object together when she is in a state of niddah, but lifting a heavy item that cannot be carried alone, such as a baby stroller, a full shopping cart, and the like, is permitted.
