She will be 1 on the 1st. We r lucky here that we get a yr with our babies but I think that makes it harder to go back. I was home only for 4 months with ds and it didnt seem as hard. Also didnt detest my boss which is a problem as well.

I must say, I am pretty jealous you get a year with your baby! I would LOVE that. My job here in Kentucky only gives us 8 weeks off paid...12 if we take the last 4 unpaid.

8 weeks???? I guess I was naive in thinking everyone got a year off. Wow, I didn't realize how lucky we are.

Based on the law government law your job has to allow you to take up to 12 weeks, but they aren't required to pay us. My job only pays 8 weeks and then anything after that is unpaid. Yes, you all are very lucky to have that much time off! I am hoping to be a SAHM eventually though and just do my photography to give us some extra money.

So, we get a year and my work tops up the amount to 93% of my pay for 8 months, then you just get the government leave for the last 4 months which I think is 55%. You should come to Canada!

I would love to be a SAHM but there is no way we could afford it. Unless I end up writing a best selling novel or we win the lottery.

Peach I don't think its fair that you only get a couple months. I couldn't imagine leaving an infant at a daycare. It has always boggled my mind. If you could stay home that would be amazing. If I wasn't having more I would have done home daycare but I can't get ei if I did.
Well ladies the witch has reared her ugly face cd1 for me. Fx'd that some bfps pop up this wknd!

Oh I'd totally move to Canada in a heartbeat! Haha! One of my good friends is from Canada, she moved here for school and bc she met our other friend in Vegas a few years back and they are now dating. I tell her all the time that she is nuts to have moved down here. She hasn't lived here long...so she will see soon enough

I can only afford to be a SAHM if I can get my photography business going a little more than it is right now. My DH makes plenty to pay our bills. My money is basically for our food, other necessities, and play. So I will say we are very fortunate to have decent income currently.

Aww, Ready!

I am feeling like she is about to appear as well, you know how sometimes you just KNOW? Ugh!

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Thanks peach! I'm really ok with it. The rush was/is on only because I don't want to go back to work for long and be off again with my kids. Up until Oct I was saying no way am I ready but then something clicked mid Oct and I thought I could do it again. I'm not going to lie pregnancy is not fun for me and giving birth is cruel punishment but what you get from it is priceless.

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Thanks perse! I don't really get any symptoms other than hating my husband but pg does that too lol. He knew one or the other was happening. Haha

 

[Bubblebrain]

Awee ready that's pants ready

 

[persephone13]

HAHAHA. Poor DHs, having to put up with our crazy hormonal antics. One day last week, DH and I were arguing and he just stopped and said, "WHY ARE YOU ACTING LIKE WEIRDO??" And then I was just like....."I have no idea."

I wonder if I should try that blood on the cheapies to see if I got results. Seems like the results wouldn't be accurate anyway, so maybe just a waste of tests.

 

[Nitengale]

I caved wayyyy to early. Here is my bFATn! Lol

I had 3 pos tests and af still showed. Save the tests and your finger!

 

[Mrs. Burch]

Oh Ready I have a feeling I will be with you SOON. I had a temp drop today, not below coverline, but FF says AF is due today. I am not feeling any of her symptoms coming on. I think my O day was wrong on FF so we will see but I am sure I am joining you soon! I can't wait to have a few for New Years!!!

Wishing, Nite Bubble and Perse I am still holding out for your BFP's!!!
