Stressed and Pregnant
I'm so stressed out with work. I work in child welfare (specifically child abuse investigations) and I'm so behind in work. My boss is literally on my ass all the time and besides giving them free hours of my own time, I have no idea how to get caught back up. I have to prioritize what is most important right now, and sometimes cases go overdue because they weren't the priority right then. But for the bosses, it's all about numbers, getting those cases closed on time, getting the information in the computer on time... well I don't agree... those aren't the things that matter, but I keep getting in trouble for them when I try my best to do what's right for the family's. I thought my job was protecting children, not playing a numbers game. I know I'm behind. But I at least I see the kids and ensure their safety as quickly as I can in every case! It may take forever to get that information in the computer though... If you've ever worked in child welfare.. you know EXACTLY the struggle I'm talking about 🙁
Anyway... I'm 6 weeks pregnant, which doesn't help matters. I'm so overwhelmed, but now I need to stay in this job til the baby is born so I can have my leave time and my insurance throughout the pregnancy. And I want to vent to my mom, but we haven't even told her I'm pregnant yet... 🙁 Anyone else just feeling extremely overwhelmed with life right now?
