Telling your boss
Help! I’m dreading telling my manager I’m pregnant. But at 14 weeks w/my second pregnancy, I’m starting to show!
Geez. That is crazy to me. As a manager at previous locations and based on my manager now that reaction is ridiculous. If she/he starts giving u a hard time or making things difficult for you make sure u place a call to upper management like HR. Keep a folder and document EVERYTHING with dates. Even write down her reaction as detailed as Possible. It will help u later. Cause let’s be real, even IF u plan on not going back the truth is they don’t know and u can always have a harassment case if u document everything. U would get a nice settlement. Now I’m not saying do any false accusations but protect yourself!!!!
Thanks, @pachecobaby! I didn’t say anything about coming back OR leaving. And her reaction? She dropped her face and covered it with both hands, and said “congratulations.” It was awkward. I told her the due date and she said (face still covered): “OK.” Oh, well! She just has to get over it!
@Despino sorry you have an unsupportive boss, too. Hope it all turns out ok for you!
I'm almost 14 weeks and my boss just asked me for an exact date when I'm leaving and when I'm coming back from maternity leave. She says she's happy for me but really I can tell she's very upset. One of my coworkers who was the best left on maternity leave and ended up not coming back. She's traumatized.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
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...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
I plan on telling my boss next time I'm in the office (I work from home and have to go to the office once a month) I fully expect her to have a negative reaction and be unsupportive and then make the rest of my time there horrible. It happened when I was pregnant with my son, so I expect it to happen again.
