So stressed out...

Why is it when you're having a bad day it is just one thing after another?

I work from home and every time I am trying to do billing my DS is the worst!  He is spilling things, climbing on chairs, absolutely refuses to take a nap, etc.  Something that should take me only 4 hours to do ends up taking me 2 days or more.  I am so frustrated. 

I work for MIL, she and FIL have their own business so I answer phones/do billing from home.  Well as of some of you know I had that massive blow out with FIL this past weekend.  I was planning on most likely not going back to work after LO gets here but now I'm starting to think I should just put in my notice and be done for now anyway.  Not even considering being pregnant (and in pain) DS is getting to be so much to handle while trying to work from home anyway.  Ugh I just wanted to vent but any input you ladies have is always welcome.

    Can you afford to make a change like that - or did you mean you would look for employment elsewhere. Maybe that would be the best option, as I can't imagine walking on eggshells because you work with the in-laws would be very relaxing...not to mention the stress you have with DS.

    We can afford for me to stay at home without working, we just have to make things work on a very tight budget. It has been nice having the extra income but it is really starting to seem like it isn't worth it anymore, especially since YES I am constantly having to watch what I say to the in laws about everything... Edit: More like extremely tight budget, and I don't know what upcoming expenses there will be with our new little addition.

    Girl I know the feeling. Everything tests my patience and frustration these days. What does your DH suggest when y'all have discussed it? Sometimes you HAVE to do what makes you happy/healthy, and just not worry about how it will affect others.

    DH and I need my income to make it, but we both agree that the moment we don't he wants me out of full time work(move to PT) to stay home with our LO until she gets into school.  This however changes if I finally get my promotion and get to move forward in my field, in that case he wants me to follow my dreams and go where the wind blows.. it's just that current positioning is hard on families and as of right now, he still makes a bit more than me.

    I would say that if you're uncomfortable at work, you're whole life is going to be uncomfortable (at least in my experience) and that changing things may be the best option.
