Ok gotta vent for a sec...... I'm 31 weeks and work in a hospital doing patient care, heavy lifting, and deal with compromising situations all the time. I haven't really complained at all just kept working. I also have a fibroid that is 8cm and we thought it was up front but last week after an ultrasound found out it is in the back of my uterus and is pushing my baby girls head forward. when I lay down her head sticks out like an apple in my belly. my doc has now put me on light duty as he feels her head isn't as protected as it should be and doesn't want me doing anymore patient care. So I give my note to my manager and she got an instant attitude and ask why are you going on light duty. I start to explain and get 3 words out and she says whatever and walks out of the room. I'm stressed about money as I am the only one working right now, hubby is in school. He does alot for me so no complaints there at all. But why does my manager have to be so rude. I was even pulled in the office a few weeks ago and was told I needed to pick it up and I don't walk with enough emergency in the halls. I feel like she is picking on me. Others that are pregnant go out around 7 months and here I am still working and not complaining but damn 12 hour shifts kick my ass. Now I'm stressed about light duty and being off and still getting my pay. But I will not put myself or my miracle baby at risk in anyway. Just wish she wasn't so rude about it and make me feel so bad. It's not like I planned this at all!!!! Sorry so long ok Rant over.

that is so rude, I felt pretty crappy at work because at the beginning my blood pressure would get really low and I'd almost pass out and I just ended up feeling like my boss looked down on me like I wasn't doing my job. I was trying my hardest to work through my shifts and keep up with the pace, which I felt like I did good, but I still felt looked down on and like it didn't count that I wouldn't complain and only called out when I really needed it.

Not really sure what the laws are but she can deny me light duty and force me to go on leave early I do know that much. I was really trying to work till Valentines day as I'm not due till March 16 but not sure that is going to work out. My boss always tells me there is no special treatment for being pregnant and up until this point I have not asked for any special treatment. I work just as hard as everyone else

I can use Fmla as soon as the doc writes me off, which he plans to do the beginning of feb but a few nurses that have been on leave and come back have still not been paid. I can't afford to not get my pay! I'm trying to do everything before and have it ready so I'm not in that position but just makes me nervous. plus it's still not all my pay

idk much about being pregnant and having to work but ain't there laws against over working your employees who are expectant mothers?

Am I wrong to be upset? Last night I was running a fever, weak, tired, sore, my left boob feels like it got used as a punching bag. I asked my husband to call out of work today to help me with the kid so I could get some rest. He went to work. I texted him this morning. Part of me thinks I mean. The other part of me thinks I was fine for saying that because he should've stayed home with us.

ekko I see both sides. However, if you both work and him taking off one day isn’t going
2sweetie I’ve never asked my husband to take a day off when I’m sick. I just deal with
boymama523 He gets the choice to call off if he’s overwhelmed or sick. You (all us mommas) don’t.

I can't take it anymore! Haley (yes my 1mth old and no I wasn't able to go through this "joy" of nursing my older daughter, Molly) has been screaming non stop for 6hrs! All she wants to do is eat and I can't have her attached to me all day, everyday! She has wanted to eat every hr on the hr for the past 3hrs! I put her in her room so I don't scream at her but I just can't take it!

lillyb Good job giving ur self a break we all need them. See if maybe she will nurse
delete____ I have to commend you for stepping away, momma!! Everyone reacts to a child screaming differently and
imisssleep123456789 Ugh I remember those days. With both kids I decided to always top them off with formula.
