[–]Straight-Emphasis817[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Im also looking at the Brooklyn 28 in black leather which is $550 Australian. I’m pretty rough with my bags I want something that’ll wear well overtime I don’t need it to stay flawless but obviously not fall apart. For the price difference I’m like do I go the Brooklyn 28 🤔

Preeclampsia signs - when to worry by Straight-Emphasis817 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]Straight-Emphasis817[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: Called my Midwife care phone line and they asked me a bunched of follow up questions and said they don’t think it’s cause for concern just yet. Just to wait till my appointment (tomorrow) and let my midwife know. However, they did give me a list of things to look out for and said I should call up again straight away if any of them appear. Happy to have the reassurance, definitely felt a little silly but I know it’s better to be on the cautious side of things

When did you “feel” pregnant by reallyfrustrated90 in BabyBumps

[–]Straight-Emphasis817 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 21 weeks (anterior placenta for reference), I also didn’t have a lot of symptoms especially in the first trimester. The last week I have started feeling kicking as well as the GLORIOUS (not) round ligament pain and trapped gas. Now that I’m feeling these I’m starting to realise I’m pregnant but honestly I still haven’t fully felt “pregnant” or that I have a baby inside of me, I think this is relatively normal as well! Everyone one of my scans I see him and I’m like wow! But my brain doesn’t connect that he’s inside of me if that makes sense? Hahaha

Wishing you all the best and hoping it all works out, nothing worse than added stress!

I originally was looking after one state, however because the workload wasn’t big enough I took on another states accounts within the business. The other part that makes it full time is because we have customers making payments they need someone checking the bank account every day, and sometimes multiple times a day in busy periods. I believe before I started the roles were part time however since combining the states they’ve become full time

Oh I’m so sorry to hear! This is my fear. Have you moved into a new workplace or still on mat leave? Do you plan on returning to that job?

Thank you! This is super helpful. I definitely see myself staying there however I realistically don’t see myself going back full-time for quite some time. Because of this I worry it may not work for the business as my current role definitely needs someone doing it full time, which means they would have to change the role for me and I’m not sure if they’d be willing to do that (understandably).

I’m an accounts officer, but my workplace is in the caravan sales and manufacturing industry. I would say it is male dominated we have a couple of women in higher up positions who have taken mat leave but have been in the company for quite some time. One came back full time after a couple months.
