maturnity leave..? (long, venting)

devins_mommy

I'm 32 weeks and 4 days, and I'm so soar and miserable. My tummy is so itchy and raw - my stretch marks look like one huge rash. And if that isn't frustrating enough, I'm sick pretty much everyday, with head colds, diareah, and just being soar and done being pregnant, I just wanna hold my baby!

And if all this isn't. Enough my due date isn't untill may, so I still have another moth of work, and my job stresses me out like NO OTHER, I HATE going to work, like to the point where I just wanna cry everyday! Its a combination of the stree of the job && the fact that my co workers SUCK. And I'm convinced my boss absolutly hates me, and I'm not kidding, no hormones, FACT!

I just don't think I can make it till my due date to stop working (like I said I was going to) one week I was soo stressed out from my babyshower / work and I had a doctors appointment that week also, and my poor little babys heart rate was 180 , when it is supost to be 140ish! Like that's not okay. And two other girls from my work, worked all the way up to there due date, so I feel like a weak person because I can't do it.. and its not only that, its how am I going to pay for my bills.. I really don't think I can make it, but I don't think my family & friends & fiance will suport my decision. I don't think they understand..

Could you work less hours? Maybe that would help.

Yeah I have the same feeling the same thing is going to happen to me at my job. I think I get high blood pressure while I am there. Got a doctors note that said I can't lift more then a certain weight and they cut me down to two days a week. I almost wish they would fire me so I could get unemployment. I can't afford to not work, but I also hate the stress that my body is going through. I think the only thing that keeps me going is my close coworker who is due a week before me. Other women at my job make me feel guilty because they all stayed working like slaves til they delivered, but im dure im going to leave at least two weeks early since I am terrified that if I go into labor at work they be like you need to finish your shift first...

Well that's the thing, my boss started cutting my hours! Like rediculose hours, one day shell have me working 7-9 then coming back 1-630 (we close at 630) like why would I wanna wake up earily, to come to work for 2 hours! Or shell have me work 7-12.

And a week straight shell have me working 2-630, or 12-630. Uhhh! Its obnoxiouse. I work at a daycare, and I'm a teachers ass. And my room was the toddler room, which I enjoyed && she KNEW that. But for the last month and a half she's been putting me in the pre school room && I cannot handle that room, for one-its not my room, and two, those kids don't listen to me, so I feel like I'm screaming all damn day && it stresses me out even more. And iv even asked her two times before to switch me with the after school girl, for an hour atleast! And she said "ya ill see what I can do" && never did it! Like don't be rude to me, don't tell me you'll do something, and don't do it!
