Working while pregnant...sm

I saw a girl who was 8 months pregnant but just had the tinest little pooch showing. I'll bet it was her first. And, of course, that last month can be a real killer for weight gain. I did that with DS#1, but had a HUGE belly with DS#2. My skin was stretched so tight I felt like if someone poked it with a pin, I'd go flying around the room like a balloon does when you let the air out. ...

Just in case some were wondering how the stray cat that was pregnant is doing... We have not seen her in a few days. She was getting pretty big and we were thinking she would have them any time now. We set up boxes and old towels in different areas just in case. She looked pretty content, we would look out to find her laying on our lawn in the sun with her big belly :-) and then at night time curled up on our porch, but she has not been around for a few days now. There i ...

She's 47 years old. IMO, that's just too old to be having a baby. What do y'all think? **Please don't get me wrong, I absolutely love John Travolta and yes a child is a wonderful, miraculous gift...As I heard it this morning...she is pregnant, not a surrogate. They've been through so much heartbreak, to risk bringing another child into this world, who has is at a higher risk for having Down syndrome or some other anomoly; let's all face it, she's 47...her risk ...

The teacher is very sweet. She tells the kids in class funny stories about her son and she has put up a chart so the kids and follow the baby's growth in her tummy. She has shared her sonogram picture with the kids, etc. Anyway, one of the moms of the kids in the class has decided that it is not appropriate for the teacher to be talking to her class about her "personal" life and she called the principal and complained. The principal in turn has talked to the teacher ...

So, 16-year-old girl gets pregnant by her 16-year-old boyfriend. Her parents were trying to force her to have an abortion. She refused, so they took away her car, refused to support her and she had to work two jobs (for punishment, according to her). She went to a local law practice, who represented her, pro bono, and she won her case. The judge ordered that her parents have no say over what she does for the entirety of her pregnancy. He also ordered that the parent ...

This Senator is crazy! Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) attempted to convince pastors that economic issues are moral issues at the Greater Freedom Rally at a church in Spartanburg, South Carolina yesterday, imploring them to help conservatives retake Congress in November. In addition to reiterating anti-choice talking points on abortion and backing "traditional marriage," according to the Spartanburg Herald-Journal, the senator went further and "said if someone is openly homosexual, they shouldn ...

The subject of this post says it all. How do you manage a home and work at the same time. I also have a toddler so it makes it difficult. Just wanted to know some ideas. TIA. ...

Keep voting republican folks. Pretty soon there will be no one left who can afford to live here except a few mega rich and their staff which will include private physicians and folks to oversee the paperwork on all the jobs they created in other countries. ...

Just to let you know I am still working on cleaning up the board. I've deleted a lot of messages. If there is a particular message that offends you please email me. Otherwise, I willl finish cleaning up the board over the week. Thanks, Moderator ...

Do any of you MTs or QAs have fibromyalgia or a form of arthritis which causes you to hurt almost daily and be depressed? How do you cope and work? I am so afraid I have developed fibromyalgia (which is something that tends to run in my family), and I am finding it very hard to sit and work 40 hours a week at a computer. I have neck, shoulder, back, arm, and hip pain and find it difficult to concentrate. What do you do you help you be able to work (I must work) and maintain a fairly active ...

As long as I've been doing this, I should be used to it, but anyone else get upset about working on holidays? I guess it's because it's summer and I'd much rather be outside floating in a pool, but just working today while knowing it's a holiday is getting to me. Anyone else? How do you cope? Not working is not an option, so I'm trying to make the best of it. ...

Hello. I recently had a new baby. My job is 3rd shift, so I don't get a lot of sleep. I nap during the day when he does. I am wondering if anyone else has done this and if they could give me some advice. Thank you. ...

outside the home so I can get some people contact and not feel so isolated. I live in a large city, but it's been difficult finding a job like this. Because of some health problems, I can't do anything physically taxing like retail or Mcjobs. I'd like to work in a medical office doing some kind of clerical work. However, these jobs are usually got by word of mouth, and I don't know have any personal contacts who could let me know about available openings.&n ...

The marquee at our local McDonald's said they were interviewing on Tuesdays from 2 to 4. My 18 year old has been doing landscape work at our church for a couple of years but now needs something with more hours so he went at 2:30. He was told the manager was not in and to come back in an hour. Obviously, DH and I were not impressed with this level of professionalism but oh well. He goes in, is interviewed and is told to report for orientation at 2:45. The paperw ...

Just wondering if any MTs are really happy where they're working right now? I need to find a new job, but honestly am not sure I really even want to continue being an MT. If I found a better place to work, I might, but still need a different job until I can find something that I can do/will make me happy, etc. I know there are pros and cons of every job, but just wondering if there might be an employer out there that has more pros than cons? Thank you! ...

Anybody working today or is it just me? ...

I guess I am fortunate to be working 2 private accounts and can take a break when I want as long as I meet all the deadlines which are not as tight as most places or impossible to meet. ...

Just wondering if I'm the only one who enjoys getting up early and working? Most people I know think that's crazy to want to get up early, especially on weekends. I am most productive very early in the morning and lose my steam by the mid afternoon. I know I can't be the only one, but maybe we are just few and far between? I always hear, "If I did your job, I would stay up late and work." Um, no. Not me. I would fall asleep at the keyboard ...

I can no longer afford daycare for my 3-year-old daughter. I am literally working around-the-clock, usually waiting for work, just to pay bills. I am a single parent and have no one here to help watch her, so I need some ideas on what I can do to keep her busy while I work. I am feeling so guilty not playing with her all day or even just sitting down watching Dora with her! I feel like a bad mom. So far today she has watched some TV, colored, played with her toys, b ...

I don't feel like working today. But I will work anyway. Because I have to pay for rent, food, health care, child care, and cell phones. Then once I've taken care of all the people who just don't want to work, I will keep working because I have my own house payment, food, health insurance, and cell phone to pay for. Because I think it's wrong to expect someone else to pay for all those things for me when I am able to work and provide for myself. ...

...on the grounds that it "might offend the sensibilities of the protesters." This is one of the reasons why the kill rate in Dallas was so high. The sniper was wearing body armor but the police officers were not allowed to do so. The police community should communicate to protest organizers in the future that they will gladly provide protective services to facilitate such activities in a safe and peaceful manner, but will be wearing the appropriate protective gear, and if the organ ...

When itemizing I always took the bills including internet, water, gas and others, added those up and then you took a percentage. That has changed for this year. Just heard on TV you take the square footage of your office (or where you would work) and multiple that x 5.00 to get the total amount you can deduct. The only problem I have now is how do I find the square footage of the office?? ...

I am amazed how lies and innuendo can possibly steal an election. 1. FBI director coming out and saying there might be a problem (but has not even seen the e-mails). 2. The Birther's who wanted to disenfranchise our country's first black president. 3. The Swiftboaters throwing manure on a Vietnam vet, Kerry. (Makes me think of Trumps 'bone spur' that kept him out of the draft and Trump saying he doesn't like vets who get cau ...

like tomorrow. My SIL, her husband, another BIL and wife are passing through. They should be here around lunch and we can surely take everyone out but I need some ideas about some snacks that might be simple to get together here at the last minute. They called just 30 minutes ago and I am working this evening/night. ...

Too close to Turkey, shot down. Setting up protecrorate in Syria to claim parts of Mid-East. You still support him over your own President? France isn't all roses either. http://www.mepc.org/journal/middle-east-policy-archives/troubles-syria-spawned-french-divide-and-rule No, not Silly Sarah, just communicating in the common vernacular. ...

After 20 years MTing, my wrist and hand pain disappeared after starting editing versus transcribing. But now both shoulders ache and I have pain on lifting above head. The pain makes it difficult to sleep due to shoulder aching, both sides. Anyone else experienced this or am I just getting old age. I do not play sports or do anything else extreme with my arms. ...

I've been following the discussions on this board since the election and I've noticed that the Bush bashers turned Obama worshipers haven't really had much to say of late. Is their messiah is just not living up to the title? Are they too ashamed to defend or worhsip publically anymore? Personally, I'm totally disturbed by Obama and there are so many things that disturb me about him that I find it very difficult to put my finger on just one. Like his he ...

More Small Businesses Offering Health Care To Employees Thanks To Obamacare Jan. 6 2011 - 2:18 pm By RICK UNGAR The first statistics are coming in and, to the surprise of a great many, Obamacare might just be working to bring health care to working Americans precisely as promised. The major health insurance companies around the country are reporting a significant increase in small businesses offering health care benefits to their employees. Why? Because the tax cut created in the new heal ...

Do you want a president who will give us endless war to spread the myth that all countries need to be democratic Do you want your social security to be dismantled or given over to wall street? Do you really want a government so small that everything is profitized and you must pay? Do you want deregulation of all corporations because you believe that they will always do whats best for people? Do you want to work for less than minimum wage? Do you want to be pepper ...
