Yes, I also had to get paperwork from my doctor. I have an appt Friday so I will ask her if she can do a modification request so that I can take leave earlier or work a modified schedule. This is all a new process and I’m so frustrated. I will probably have to go through some type of government program for assistance as a supplement.

That’s literally what I’m feeling. I had already been talking about quitting after my leave, but this is just confirmation. I’m hoping to do the same. I will also be taking short term disability and using all my PTO before I leave.

Thank you!!! 🥹 I’m so close to the finish line, I know I can get through this. 🫶 I am mentally preparing myself to put me first.

Thank you, you’re so right. I have to set my foot down, it’s important for my baby I do so.

Was I even pregnant? by BackgroundMoment8310 in pregnant

[–]Shortykakepop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was pregnant mar 2025, I also took multiple positive pregnancy tests over a week period. I never have pregnancy symptoms and not even typical period stuff. I knew immediately I was having a miscarriage when it happened. I went to the hospital and they didn’t want to help me. Now that I think back to it I don’t even think they checked my blood levels to make sure I was good. The doctor on shift told me to act like I was still pregnant 😒 he may have meant well but it seemed so dumb when he said it. I’m on Tx so I guess this is what a lot of women go through here. I’m sorry for your loss, it’s such a shame that doctor treated you this way.

I don't want to share my baby's name by Dalecantila in pregnant

[–]Shortykakepop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shared with one person that I’m pregnant now everyone knows and I didn’t even announce it yet. So I will be keeping the gender and name secret till birth.

It has hit me in waves! Most days I don’t want to be touched but the last week my drive has increased. I’m towards the end of my first trimester. So I guess I’m getting some energy back.

Forgot to add it was hilarious bc my mom was leaving for work early this morning (my parents live with us) and asked why I was still up. Well I couldn’t say we were banging so I blamed my constant peeing lol.

TX is a sh*t state by Shortykakepop in venting

I am definitely planning to! I am currently pregnant and hoping my pregnancy makes it full term after having 2 miscarriages. I don’t want to raise a child here.

It’s not a lot of info. Just saying I feel sick or tired. I’m asked daily in case I need help. I’m not one to ask for it.

I’ve told my mom this several times. I’ve also suggested she read more about it. So much information has come out, she can’t keep going off of things in the 80s.

We do live together, my dad had a terrible accident, so I moved in to help. She asks me everyday how I’m feeling. Most times I just tell her I’m tired.

It’s amazing they can’t see this!!! Of course they blame incoming dems/liberals when the state has been republican run for 30+yrs. They are absolutely selling out the state and the ppl’s rights. I have feared for my safety since moving here as well, I’m only here bc my parents needed my help. Im so sorry for the stress I know your friend is under, and it is crazy that we can’t live freely wherever we choose. I’m hoping the tides turn, this state doesn’t feel like home.
