Working part time or full time?

Question

Hi, my husband and I, ttc for about 3 years for first child. I'm 36 and hubby 42. We are focusing this month to conceive. If ever I get pregnant do you think working part time is better? My job is so stressful and I'm worry about miscarriage. Do you think my decision is right? Pls, advice. Thank you!

Answer

My hubby and I have had issues maintaining a pregnancy, and I no longer work so I can focus on my health while pregnant. Thankful he works hard and we can afford it.

Answer

I worked PT for the majority of my last pregnancy...then I had to take off completely around 6.5-7 months (thank goodness for FMLA and short term disability!) due to complications.  My job was also stressful...and demanded a LOT of hours/week in the office.  I now work from home for a different company in the same industry and I could probably work through an entire pregnancy (if we can just get pregnant so we could finish our family...)
I even feel like I could work through complications that there is no way I could work through if I had to go into the office every day!

My point is -- every person/pregnancy/situation is different :)
You do what you need to do :)
Good luck!!!
