Hey everyone, I (Natalie) was previously known as "Confused_1984". I was extremely confused about what to do regarding my pregnancy but i can confirm that me and my boyfriend, Karl, have decided to go through with having the baby. I'm 22 and he's 25. My mum is still finding it hard to come to terms with and i'm still extremely worried about telling my work! Can't wait until all stress is lifted off my shoulders so we can start to enjoy my pregnancy! Natalie and Karl xxx
Congratulations and good for you! It may help you to know that in a recent survey, expectant mums said that the thing they feared most about their pregnancy was telling their boss, so your not alone in the way you feel. Its never as bad as you think, and your rights are protected so they cant treat you badly. Hope everything goes well for you hun.
Thanks a lot girls, and yes that statistic is helpful to know. Numerous amounts of people have told me i have nothing to worry about...i hope they're right! Look forward to listening and sharing stories and experience with you all. xxx
