Staying focused at work...

[annalatte]

...is almost impossible.  Between all-day nausea, fatigue, and trying to hide the fact that I am pregnant (too soon to tell).  Also, knowing that I will be quitting my job when I have the baby in 7 months is making it super hard to focus.  My boss is a workaholic who wants me to take on more and more projects every day, and I am not motivated.at.all.  One of these days, she's going to catch on I'm sure.   

Anyone else struggling with work?

Yes, it has been a big struggle for me. I'm not happy with my job either, so I'm sure that plays a role, but it is draining right now.

I'm still early into my pregnancy but I am also having trouble! I work in schools (not a teacher) and I'm itching to get back to my daily routine of school visits which won't start for another few weeks. It is making time pass so slowly! I had a big conflict for my first appointment so I did tell my boss and she has been really good about things so far but it is only a matter of time before she uses the pregnancy against me, sadly. I'm sure she isn't thrilled that I'm due nearly 2 months before the school year ends.

I will be returning to work but it's still hard, and I happen to love my job. I just have so much on my plate that I want to complete before I go on leave and my goal was to get things done before Labor Day Weekend in case I give birth early. Not sure that will happen.

uh yeah. super hard. i've had good weeks and bad weeks throughout. Now that I'm at the end I have days where I do all the things, and then I have days where I do nothing but GBCN and whatnot. It's hard, but hang in there.

Yes! I'm struggling today. I'm feeling exhausted and have some resentment towards my employer right now (they asked me out of the blue if I could change my schedule and come in 15 minutes earlier...which is only 15 minutes, but I am angry that they would ask to change things up when my life is about to get so much harder, not to mention the fact that we've already got a daycare plan/deposit setup that will not work with this). I just wish it were Friday already!

EVERY DAY. Especially right now. I am trying to keep my self busy to keep my mind off of things but it never really seems to work. I need to focus!!

[snickers]

Ugh, that does sound hard

I am right there with you except some of my co workers know. I can't sit in my office because there's no airflow so it feels like 1000 degrees. And all I can think about is when my next ob appointment is and what well see

[SallySparrow]

Yep. I love being a nurse, but lately you wouldn't know it because I am so over working and being this pregnant. Ugh.

All I want to do is plan for this baby and get shiz done, but work has picked up and I can't
