pregnancy pet peeve turned lucky!
Hi Ladies!
So I am 29 weeks pregnant, and I feel as giant as a whale. I have not had a comfortable pregnancy. However, despite being VERY aware that I'm pregnant I have had a lot of friends, family and people I see regularly tell me that I don't look pregnant, or that they didn't realize I was pregnant, or that there's no way I'm 7 months. "When did your second trimester start?" And insulting stuff like that. I've always felt it insulting that people think I look regularly that fat that a giant baby belly isn't noticeable.
ANYWAY, I'm in school studying to be a paralegal, and last month I went to an open house for a huge law firm that I REALLY wanted to get hired at. I was hoping they wouldn't notice I was pregnant because they don't hire new paralegals often, and I know they're hiring this summer, so I was really hoping my curse would work in my favor and they wouldn't notice I was six months pregnant. Well, apparently it must've worked! I have an interview with them Tuesday! Wish me luck!!! I know starting a job with a newborn will be tough, but luckily my Husband is doing his doctorate so he'll be able to watch her while I'm working, and we're going to hire my sister to babysit when he's at school.
