I don't want to stop working now...

ahh just a mini vent. Nothing serious over here but I'm just like Ahhh! I'm a real estate receptionist. I'm part time but one of the other girls is moving to another job at the end of this week. I'm due in exactly a month, and I couldn't be more happy to know I'll be gaining more hours but now I'd love to not have this baby so soon! I don't want to go on maternity leave. My boss is still hiring a temp replacement for me but she'll be leaving almost immediately when I get back. She's not hiring a third girl either so I know I'll have my job back. I just would love more time now to learn a ton before I go. I have been trying for a raise once I hit my year mark here a couple months ago but I'm just like darn little one I'm excited for you and now I want to work more lol. Anyone else going through something similar? I love to work if you can't tell, I've never not had a job!

  • Today was my last day and I feel so sad! I'm 25 and have worked since I was 16. I know I'll have a job once I'm ready to go back but I love my position and coworkers. Don't get me wrong... I'm so excited for baby but this unemployment feeling is so odd!

  • Me! I stared a new job last week (I'm now almost 38 weeks) and so far I'm really liking it. I really wish I had more time to get situated (and earn some extra time off before baby). At the same time, I'm done being pregnant and can't wait to meet baby! At least we know we have something to look forward to when we go back to work, as hard as it will be!
  • Yeah I do know how you feel. I was considering shutting my business down or totally revamping it right before I found out I was pregnant. My youngest at the time was finally sleeping through the night so working from home, while homeschooling, was much smoother sailing.

    Then I saw the positive pee stick and decided to shut it down, at least for now. I can't be superwoman and do it all. I want to give baby, and my other kiddies, my best. And I cannot do that right now if I try to do the newborn thing again while juggling homeschool and work. My focus is on their education and being Miss Susie Homemaker. I'll most likely work again soon but not right now. And it stinks but they're all worth it. Just wanted to say I know how you felt! I wish I was working and doing my thing.

  • I am a teacher and was transferred to a new assignment. I may not even get to start the first day since it looks like (due to Dr concerns) they want to start labor at 39 wks. I wish I could get at least a week in so my transition back would be easier.
  • I so wish that I could be off of work now! I'm so uncomfortable and part of my job is being outside in the hot. I'm ready for my LO to get here so that I can just be home with him. I can stop working whenever but I only get so much time. I don't want to waste the little bit of time that I am going to get with him. I have a lot that I want to get done and I am too tired after I get home from work to get it all done. Blah. Every morning I wake up and tell my DH that I am quitting today.
