So I might definitely need a friend..

I just really need to rant..

I found out I was pregnant October 8th, after a miscarriage in March of this year. I am soooo exited. I told my husband the next day & then we had an early 6 week ultrasound appointment the following day.. everything came out normal. We double checked with a special imaging center to make sure my baby was in fact implanted in my uterus.. it is healthy & my HCG levels are rising normally. Everything is where it needs to be for 6 weeks. I am 7 weeks today!

I had to quit my job Tuesday because my doctor restricted me being around cat litter, lifting anything over 10lbs or being around large dogs (I worked at a vets office) I tried talking to them but I either got “you’re worrying too much” or “I did it & I was fine” which isn’t what I wanted or needed to hear. My worry is my own.. they couldn’t offer me other positions so I left because neither me nor my husband were okay with risking it. It’s out first child & we just want to be careful. My husband just started a new amazing job, we won’t be rich but we’ll be okay by the time the baby is here..

But now I’m stressing about working. I should be making extra money to help save! I have a whole child on the way! My only other option is going back to nannying but again, I don’t know if that’s something I want to do.. watching other people’s kids is stressful! I am trying to figure out options for myself because I don’t want to spend my entire days at home in bed..

maybe all I need is a little prayer & a little advice..

We are not telling anyone until Christmas/new year so here I am dealing with the stress & anxiety alone while my husband travels for work.
