Frustrated...

[Angel_blues]

I went to my doctor today and I have mixed feelings...

The good: My beta levels at 5w0d were 1750. So nice and high yay!

The bad: I mentioned the pulling and cramping in my lower abdomen. He said because of my previous mc and my mental break down from my last one I am not allowed to work or go to the gym for two weeks. He is also strongly recommending I must tell my employer about the pregnancy, my risk level and past.

I've only been with my employer for a month. I am not even past my probation, I am afraid of loosing my job

Congratulations on your new pregnancy.

What is your job as I think it would affect if you go to work or not.

I had depression after my mmc and I have stressed my way through this pregnancy.
For me working took my mind of things. Are you just going to sit at home and worry? I do have a sit down job though.

Also every pregnancy is different and some pulling and cramping is perfectly normal.

I think you should follow your gut and do what you think is best for you.

I am a welder and a millwright so I do a lot of walking, climbing, lifting, carrying, up/down ladders. And I work 3: 12 hour shifts back to back.

I ended up telling my employer and he told me to take the time I needed, that my job was safe and to take care of myself and my hopefully little miracle. First scan on Monday.
