OT horrible timing

Danie007 · October 2013

I'm due around Christmas. I was told at my appointment that I'm progressing rather fast. With my previous history my doctor told me to prep myself for an early arrival. Normally I deliver at about 37 weeks (beginning of December), but she doesn't think I'll even make it that far. Now, my news from today is DH was laid off this afternoon. That phone call about sent me into labor. Everything cramped up, and now I'm super stressed. I teach dance, so DH was our main income and insurance. Now that's all gone. I was hoping to work right up until delivery, but all this stress may be enough to put an end to that. The doctor was already in the air about letting me work. End of my vent that probably doesn't even make sense anymore. I'm just glad I bought all of my newborn cd stash when I did.

I'm so sorry. I hope your DH can find something else quickly!

I'm so sorry.Hopefully he'll be eligible for unemployment to bridge the gap, and can find employment soon. So easier said than done, but try not to stress.

Thank you ladies. I don't think he qualifies for unemployment, because, he has a very very part time job at our church that he gets a paycheck from.

I am fairly certain that he may still qualify.

He is going to see if he can file tomorrow.

Some places will tell you that you can't, but if you fight it then you have a shot. This was how my old job worked. They denied, you fought, then you'd win.

I'm so sorry! What a horrible stressful situation! T&P that your DH will find a new job quickly, and your little peanut will hold on a little longer.

So sorry, please try to take good care of yourself and that baby! I know how hard it can be to be dealing with so many transitions at once.

I know a few families that went through this with bad timing too. It's how a few of my friends became SAHDs.
