I’m just needing to vent. It’s hard.

I’m 36+1. Doc says I’m 1cm. So there’s normal “discomforts” of being 9 months pregnant. We all get it lol.

AND I’ve had a cold for a couple of days. That’s no fun! Along with that there’s a glaze of ice on the roads where I live. 🥺 AHHH!!

So all things considered, I decided to call off work today. Which is leaving me stressed out about $. Story of my life!

I don’t have any sick hours because everything is being used for my maternity leave. Which FYI, I’m basically not getting paid much AT ALL for maternity. Only what’s in my sick bank which isn’t much. So it’s definitely gonna be tight for a few months! And I left early Monday and Tuesday due to contractions/not feeling well. So... my last check is gonna be really short! I’m only scheduled to work through next Friday.

I’m trying to do my best to take care of myself and my baby boy while still work and make $. But It’s so hard to find the balance. Anyone else struggle with this?? I keep telling myself money is money and everything will workout! But it’s so hard. I feel guilty all the time
