Well a lady that I work with asked me if I
was preggy. I couldn't lie. Lol within 5
min the whole office knew including my
boss who of course was more concerned
about how much time I would be taking off.
What a jerk!!! Aghhh I thought I was
hiding it pretty well but I guess not!
Plus I started trowing up this morning
aghhhhhh I hate puking I hate it hate it
hate it!!! Why can't pregnancy be a nice
enjoyable thing pain free??? Wouldn't
that be nice???

Screw your boss for being such a dick. I
hate how bosses only think of themselves
when women are pregnant. It would be nice
if you could remind him that he once came
from a woman and his mother most likely
had to take time off work also. Hopfully
your boss comes around, is he even comes
close to threatening to fire you get a
lawyer and sue his butt. There will be
your kids college fund:)

That's true about employers they onely
think of themselves and how much time
would you take off. I remember that is
what happen to me like my boss was like so
how long you taking off, are you coming
back, what are you going to do.
I was like whoa slow down with the
questions....

Seriously if he did try to fire you or cut
your hours you could easily win a law suit
against him. Not that you want to do
that, but if he starts screwing with you
it's something you might consider. What
a jerk!

B e careful though, they are usually smart
enough (as dumb as they are) to make it
seem like you were fired for somehting
else and they didn;t care that you were
there preg at all, they know the law and
don't want to get into trouble for doing
it so obviously
sad isn;t it?

My boss can't do a dang thing. Yes, I
have maternity leave 3 months paid and
then I can take up to a year off unpaid
and come back to my current position. We
are union here so it takes an act of god
for them to fire you let alone do it
because you are preggy. I will be fine.
It just pissed me off he was being a jerk
about it and only thinking about the
department and what will they do if I take
all that time off. Whatever!!! Thanks
gilrs I know you got my back!

i actually didnt get any at all but I am
now 22 weeks along, you can get it at any
time though so dont press your luck.
However I have gotten sick 2 times it
happened in the afternoon, my doc said
even if you dont get morning sickness your
body is still undergoing a lot of changes
so you can get sick anytime. Im sure it
will probably happen to me again!
Hey ixannahs mom, how far along are you
now? Is your work the only place that
has found out so far, cause I remember
before you had said you still havent told
your hubby (or bf?) sorry I havent been on
here much lately, im behind on all the
scoops!
