Be honest... (advice?)

Would it be silly of me to take the day off work tomorrow to just relax a bit? This weekend was really stressful, with the cramps and spotting I had. This afternoon, I've stayed off my feet alllllll day and drank lots of water. Since then, the spotting as seemed to diminish. Would it be over-cautious of me to take the day off, or am I over-thinking things? Thoughts?

    I say, if you have the time to use, do it.  I would, if I could, but we don't get sick days.

    I think you should do it if it will make you feel better.  I would do it.

    I agree with jenvalet, if you can take the day off, do it. Take it easy and take care of yourself. I think if your gut is telling you that you need to rest, listen to your first instinct.

    yeah if you have time to take, take it!!  you've gotta listen to your body and if it's telling you to take a break, you probably should.

    I agree with the rest of the girls and say take the day off if you really feel you should. However, I just want to throw in that you may need to take more days off in the future (most likely), so you may want to think about that as well.  

    As a side note, I don't think you can ever be too cautious, so follow your gut!!

    Ok. You've convinced me :) Tomorrow is officially rest/grow a baby/pray he/she sticks with me day. I only have a month and a half until summer break, and hopefully I can make it through without too many more days off!

    If you have the time, take it! You need to put yourself and your LO first. I'm always off Wednesdays but with the spotting I had that evening I took of Thursday and Friday as well. My job can be super stressful and I just needed some time to clear my head.

    I wish I could take tomorrow off as well, but back to reality. Crying
