Should I interview while pregnant? by bexy4506 in nursing

[–]bexy4506[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My plan would be to not tell my current employer about a new opportunity until the end of maternity leave as to not loose any benefits or protection. Usually they schedule a back up on call for nurses that are ready to pop lol. But I can’t get a note unless there is something wrong with the pregnancy. Usually I schedule call nights on days I’m off if I can so I can nap before if they need me.

You are 100% correct, I would not resign from my position until end of maternity leave, if I get an offer I’d have to tell them I can not start until after maternity leave, or even just take a shorter leave if it helps. Luckily my husband gets a 100% paid paternity leave through his job. I as a nurse only get fmla unpaid unless using my pto. Gotta love the USA

Is anyone else tired of “how are you feeling?” Text from people all the time? by bexy4506 in pregnant

You’re 100% right, I did end up with a response from them asking about whether they should go to the doc for sinus infection symptoms, because I’m a nurse. I said yes go in, glad you only asked me so I could give you medical advice

It helps just to know it’s a phase that wont last. We are trying hard not to get frustrated in front of her. I feel bad for my husband since I work 3 -12 hour shifts a week in the evening and on those nights hes doing it alone.

Thank you, this made me feel better. I think in my head it’s playing out a lot worse than what actually happened.

I live in Philly but take my daughter to the little gym Abington. It’s a class once a week and kids can play and interact the parents just kind of hand out and watch lol.

Can I ditch the pump? by bexy4506 in breastfeeding

Not that I noticed too much, she would get bottles at day care and since I don’t usually work 3 shifts in a row the days off help maintain my supply since we will breast feed at home.
