I just realized next Thursday my mom will be here for Easter... and 2 Thursdays after that is my Due Date


OMG!! Time is just going by so fast!!!


It doesn't even feel like its been a week since we went and got Joe's mom.


I guess cause i have been so darn busy i hardly noticed... i worked 48 hrs last week and and 52 hours this week... from now on by Dr's note i am on only 8 hr shifts and no more then 40 hrs a week... a compromise from taking off 2 weeks before my due date.. my dr goes but if anything and i mean anything medical happens your off work... YEs Sir... Joe isn't 100% happy with it, but he knows i am anxious about our finances while i am off for maternity leave expecially since i do not want to go 2 weeks late and then only have 2 weeks with the baby... that just wouldn't work.

Anywho my house is a wreck... the baby room isn't done.. our room is a MESS and a half since we crammed things in there so we could get room in the front room for Joe's mom... i need to start on putting baked goods in the freezer now that i have a working oven... ACK Think i can roll back the clock about Ohhh a month hehehe.

No need to panic...

How long of a maternity leave do you get from your job? Will you be able to draw insurance benefits while you are off? I'm only asking because when I had my daughter back in 1980 I was allowed to draw sick pay benefits while I was off on maternity leave. I was even able to draw them prior to her birth since I was off work under doctor's orders.

I am sure you will get the necessary stuff done, the rest of it can wait if need be. Try to relax the best that you can and enjoy the last few weeks of your pregnancy...once they get here life is never the same...and I mean that in a good way for the most part :D!

mombottoo~ i get 6 weeks off total for regular birth .. if i have a Csection ( which i dont want ) i would have 8 weeks.

I have no insurance through work so no benifits to use.
