I Did It

Thanks, guys, for the support regarding my last post. I had a rough week, which isn't too good when you're 32 weeks pregnant with a "high risk" pregnancy.

As a side note, I don't really think of this pregnancy as being high risk, but I guess because of the preterm labor last time and the supposed gestational diabetes, I noticed that my doctor had checked the box for "high risk" on the write up from my last visit. I actually think he did that so the insurance company will pay for the ultrasound I just had, but anyway.

What I really wanted to blog about was the fact that I did stand up for myself. Told my boss how I felt about the stress this week and told him that I wouldn't be working nights and weekends from here on out. It's not fair to my family, it's not fair to this baby inside me, and its not fair to me. He was very understanding about it, and all is good.

** As another side note, I just want to comment on the fact that we working women have it so much rougher than men, and I don't think they realize that. When the men come home from a long week of long hours, they come home to a house full of groceries, a cooked meal, their kids taken care of, bathed, fed, their laundry done, their clothes ironed, a clean house, etc. It just doesn't quite work that way for us.
