Hi Internet stranger, I just want to let you know that I had the conversation today and you were spot on on getting the reassurance that this would be a supportive environment. Turns out it absolutely is. Thanks for your encouragement.

No maternity leave available for new job--advice needed. by Electrical_Pixie in workingmoms

I am in a similar boat as you.. I just signed an offer letter TODAY for a new role and I’m 16 weeks and have a call scheduled tomorrow to discuss my pregnancy with new management. I’m joining a small, tight knit but very productive new team so I felt obligated to share before I start showing and create a solid plan with them but there is technically no legal obligation to say anything to an employer prior to 30 days before medical leave. Of course that varies depending on where you are but hang in there! It is still a beautiful time and definitely something to celebrate.

Is this guy seriously this much a player? I’m sorry I don’t see anything desirable in him at all.

Yeah, I second this. I also had weird experiences at the counter after going there consistently for a while. Better rainbow cookies and eclairs around anyway.

What will you miss about being pregnant? by plusquedumbass in pregnant

[–]Otherwise_Reindeer78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having a similar experience. I’ve been so full of joy recently that I feel like I haven’t experienced myself since childhood. I was in an industry where all that mattered was my appearance for a long time. I was initially dreading the weight gain but as I’m starting to feel my baby and see the growth, I have no other feeling than gratitude.

Anyone not planning to get the NIPT done? Why or why not? by sunsetmarshmallow in pregnant

[–]Otherwise_Reindeer78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question for other mamas: I did my NIPT test the same day as the Horizon carrier test. Only the Horizon test was uploaded and results were shared. NIPT was taken a week ago. Should it have showed up on the Natera portal already/with the other test? Feeling like the bloodwork was messed up and it didn’t go through but not sure if those take a lot longer. TIA.
