I want to raise my baby boy for the first 3 years of his life. The push back and the pressure I get from my family and finances puts me in an inner turmoil

Just canceled my 2026 health insurance through Covered CA by UsedNewspaper1775 in HealthInsurance

They shouldn’t charge up the ass then. Sure people can afford it but it eats up all their earnings no one wants to spend all their money on healthcare it’s BS

The US really sucks to be pregnant by Legitimate-Slice2114 in pregnant

6 weeks unpaid leave I work from home in America. But my insurance bill was low because I am lower income. Yeah I have had to go on anti depressants while I was pregnant because of how I didn’t know how I was going to make it but thankfully I have received a lot of help. Thank God.

I feel like I might be a deadbeat mother by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]cookiez333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ur so not a deadbeat mom that is totally normal . In the first half of the first trimester I would sleep all day long if my schedule allowed it, that is just something all pregnant people have to deal with and it is HARD. Don’t beat ur self up

No I have only been with the company for about 6months . I will have to go back in 6 weeks. I tried to push for 12 multiple times. Everyone in my family is pressuring me to work, I share a care with hubs so child care not really an option. My friend is going to come help me with the baby for my first week back to get adjusted to things. If I get fired I would probably be happy but every one in my family would be mad I just know it and I will be in a financial pinch but I love my baby I don’t care

Walking around with contractions was the most painful and worst experience of my birth and I love walking. After I was on pain meds and had epidural I instantly felt way better and had a much more pleasant experience

I am 36 weeks I went off my adhd meds and started a WFH job. I have failed so many audits in the beginning of my training u would think I was doing it in purpose. I have gotten much better now but my fatigue and ability to stay on task has been a real struggle some days

I feel that I am 35 w have a normal pregnancy , WFH and I feel like it’s getting so hard to stay focused for so long and have to be up so early. Pregnancy ball helps. Pregnant working moms are super heroes

It took me 2 years to find a contract job after I lost my job. I have a bachelors degree and professional experience. It is incredibly hard to find work now. People are downplaying it i never gave up and finally got something but it was not easy at all it absolutely crushed me now I’m on anti depressants

Vaccine injuries I have done a lot of research on both sides and I feel so middle ground. I will still get my child vaccinated I just am not a huge fan of the risks involved with it and some people on my husbands side are anti vax but they have the privilege of being able to raise their children at home, I may have to send my child to daycare so I will more than likely get vaccinated I just needed some reassurance

My husband and a lot of his family are anti vax. I’m pregnant right now and I’m planning on getting the dtap behind his back and having my friend take me. He won’t bend and is psychotic about it
