two exciting things happened today... first co workers threw me a surprise shower :) loved it had no clue they would do that for me!!
second thing... had to go into L&D because they saw 4 decelerations in Adonijahs' heart rate... was in MFM from 2.30 til 3.40 then went into L&D from 4.20-6.30 bleh... but he is fine... they saw my contractions vary some go for 4 minutes apart to none for 15 minutes to braxton hicks... so I'm to take it easy and drink loads of waters... (which I have yet to get up and get) luckily I'm off tomorrow... (btws he is ok)
Oh bonus surprise... I am not eligible for FMLA so now we have to figure out what the heck I can do while on leave to stay active in the system... 😧
none the less today had loads going on 😌 happy to be home though with my bunny even if I can't have her out to chase her around (I was told strictly to rest)
Oh okay @dabcw3814 yeah I quit my very good job because I couldn't leave my son last time
I will be eligible for SD. It's only 6 weeks after the baby is born. Max benefit is 26 weeks with medical documentation. I can't even fathom going back to work when my baby is 6 weeks. @b3autifulm3ss I'm not eligible bc you have to work there for 12 months. I found I was pregnant 2 months after I was hired. I may be able to use vacation time and personal as well. I have to see... It's stressing me
Fmla and disability are two different things... in CA you are eligible to collect short term disability at 36 weeks (with a healthy pregnancy) and for 6-8 weeks after baby but idk if this is the same in every state
have you ladies looked into disability?
@b3autifulm3ss, I'm short like some 240 hours to hit the eligible mark... so my boss is asking what she can do to keep me in the system my husband said to go to work for a few hours after I have him 2 times in 8 weeks... but having a c section I'd rather not... but we will see..
I'm not eligible either. I haven't even contacts HR yet to see what my options are. I'm nervous 😬
@minimomma, why aren't you eligible?
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
the amount of women who are clueless about their own anatomy is so sad and shocking. a lot of the women are older than me and have more children then I do 😳
now I understand that everyone has their own opinion on the topic and grown adults can do whatever they want with their bodies but to deny facts and make up false statements about your own anatomy when it comes to your unborn child is just so disappointing.
