I’m planning a home birth so I have no options for induction which is probably a good thing because I have been so frustrated and I could see myself choosing that if the option was available. I work full-time and I only get 6 weeks of maternity leave because I haven’t been at my job a year yet so FMLA doesn’t apply 😢 I don’t mind my little one still cooking but work is exhausting me, to the point that I cry in frustration while getting ready for work. I’m so blessed to even have the job that I do, but I would give anything to stay at home and rest without giving up some of my maternity leave before baby comes.

Any other mamas dealing with this? If so, how are you remaining positive?
