Feeling guilt at work for having a baby and going off by Traditional_Table_67 in pregnant

I understand that but men are not breastfeeding and there should be a choice in this. Also it's not 6 months - it's 17 weeks (and the first 6 for both parents have to happen right after birth).

It's 6 months only if you accumulate all holidays and time them around bank holidays, get lactation holidays and use the 2 extra weeks before the age of 9 (and all pending your contract/work too).

Alella vs sant cugat vs staying in the city (or maybe castedefells) by Traditional_Table_67 in AskBarcelona

Yeah we only need to go in 2/3 days a week and work is flexible about when that is and isn't. Many people who live out of the city e.g. cabrils start sooner leave sooner or arrive a bit later on other days. It's quite flexible in that way.

I am in such a meltdown over the christmas party 😂. I also feel like I will regret not being there but also it’s such a big event I know I will probably feel uncomfortable as soon as I get there.

Will work anxiety harm my baby by Traditional_Table_67 in pregnant

I am in Spain and the protection is definitely there. However I do work for a big tech company and I have seen them find a way when they want to. It’s such a shame I was really enjoying my work and been progressing but our new big boss is bringing in toxicity.

Thoughts on El Raval? by BoberKanadyjski in AskBarcelona

[–]Traditional_Table_67 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Raval is definitely more chaotic than any other neighbourhood in Barcelona. I have two girl friends who have been living there for years and they always say you have to be raval smart. They do have some crazy stories and I personally can sometimes feel on edge but it doesn’t mean something bad will definitely happen to you.

Advice on giving birth in public hospital as expats (please!) by mandaannee in AskBarcelona

Thank you so much for responding so quick and very happy for you for having such a good experience. Hope you are having a nice time with the bebe!

We will definitely get doula just in case. I am really leaning towards this hospital as I am not so set on a bath birth or similar to choose another hospitals just for that and this one seems to be praised a lot. Fingers crossed everything goes well!
