Alright ladies I need some more advice. I work at an oral surgeon's office. We use nitrous oxide and have an older system so it is not all filtered out. I know I'm not supposed to be around it, as it can cause miscarriage and/or preterm birth. Since for the time being I'm playing the waiting game, should I tell my boss or not? I am working today to help out and of course I'll be there Monday as well before I go back for my repeat bloodwork. I've never told a boss so early in the pregnancy before and I'm really not sure what to do. Thoughts?
@gullible.the.dinosaur i see. I Just wouldn't say anything this early. When do you go back to the doctors for a redraw ?
@angikay as of this moment I am considering myself pregnant. I've taken multiple tests including a digit that are all positive. However, this happened with my chemicals as well. The lines I'm getting now are getting darker but with my hcg being so low and my doctor not being optimistic it's hard to be like "okay I'm pregnant for real."
But he also can't fire me. It doesn't affect my job other than I'll need to close the door by the front office or step outside while they're doing nitrous cases. I have no disciplinary issues that he could use as an excuse to fire me. But it was also really hard to work after my miscarriage because everyone knew about it. I'd like to avoid that if I do have an early loss.
Are you 100 percent sure you're pregnant ? If not , I wouldn't say anything at all because you could risk losing your job for nothing ! But if you are pregnant ,and not supposed to be around that , I would not risk it !! Baby comes first always !
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?

Bump pic. 14 weeks 2 days ! I'm showing alot earlier with my boy than I did with my girl !excuse the background, I'm at work, im a painter, and one of my workers said boss you're getting pudgy !! 😋😋 so I had to go take a look in the mirror!
need suggestions....
So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.

(Thread Closed) So this just happened. Deffinatly wasn't trying. Only been with my boyfriend almost 7 months. I already have a 4 year old son. Oh man. I'm shaking. Literally freaking out. 1 day before period.
@gullible.the.dinosaur fingers crossed it goes up !!
