I hope it comes through for you too!<br /><br />And I'm with you, the maternity leave conversation is ridiculously depressing.

Thank you for following me. :)<br />Anyways...you are only a week ahead of me in your pregnancy.. I had no idea you could find out the sex this soon. I'm gonna have to ask my doc about that my next visit. <br />I have been pretty lucky with the morning sickness...I mostly just feel sick and don't throw up. I hope yours starts getting better though! Most people tell me that it should start easing up by now.<br />Anyways, cant wait to read more!Beccahttp://www.becca.misstuned.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502286757510481526.post-48671034992421476372009-04-30T16:11:00.000-07:002009-04-30T16:11:00.000-07:00Woo-hoo- congratulations on coming to the end of t...Woo-hoo- congratulations on coming to the end of the pukey part of your pregnancy! My daughter is on her 4th pregnancy in 4 years and was always thrilled to have that over with. I guess I lucked out, as in 5 pregnancies, I only tossed my cookies twice! (And they were actually blueberry pancakes! - OK, I know, TMI!)<br />But what I really wanted to comment on is your dilemma with being able to take a nice mat leave. Our baby # 6 was GIVEN to us with only 3 weeks notice, when our 'baby' was 11. (yeah, yeah, I know! Remember I did 5 the hard way!) Obviously that took some adjusting so I started looking for a way to keep up my income but still stay home with the little one. Well, I found it! For the past 7 and a half years, I've been a full time stay at home mom, (Grandma for the last 3.5 years)have worked part-time around MY schedule and have still brought a substantial income into our home... including enough to pay for the $14000 adoption bill. If you are serious about your dream of staying home with your kids, email me and I'll tell you how I can help. No obligation, no risk, and all the help you need from a mom who's been there and done that, ALL that!<br />I do wish you a happy result to your search. There is NOTHING better than having the freedom to enjoy the little ones while they're little!Mildred Carrollhttp://www.mom2six.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502286757510481526.post-61494429733333774892009-04-29T14:08:00.000-07:002009-04-29T14:08:00.000-07:00It is super hard to figure out how to make finance...It is super hard to figure out how to make finances work with kids! Wes and I would love to have me stay at home with our kids, but making it work is tough. Hopefully if you two save enough now you'll be able to take a decent maternity leave later!Parsing Nonsensehttp://www.parsingnonsense.comnoreply@blogger.com
