Is it a bad idea to start a new job at 18 weeks?

Question

Due to financial stress etc., I felt like I needed to get a job just until the baby is due as I dont want to weigh my husband down with more work than he already has. It will start at 6 am, which means I'll need to be awake at least 4am and my shift ends at 4:30 PM. I'm just worried that my body may react badly to a new stress/life event as I have miscarried in the past. Should I be concerned or no?

Answer

If you handle stress well it’s probably okay, but if you’re like me and get over tired easily/ stressed easily/ don’t react to change well it’s most definitely not a good idea.  Make sure you’re not lifting anything heavy either and make sure your new boss knows your pregnant

Answer

Perhaps consider a job that lets you work from home. There’s a lot of job postings for remote work online. Google: “remote work jobs”

Answer

I would check with your doctor Mama and make sure he thinks it’s safe. Is it 5 days a week? You’ll need plenty of rest and I wouldn’t do any prolonged standing or sitting. Good luck!💕

You can do it but don't let the stress affect your health.
