OverWorking!! help ladies
So I work full time at a hospital doing housekeeping. I'm 23 weeks and its starting to be a bit much, I'm on my feet the whole shift. I'm constantly lifting, bending, squatting, pulling, ppushing etc. I'm scared of overworking and putting stress on my body. My job is not giving me light duty. I'm swollen all over. Ion know what to do. But I can't get thru my pregnancy under these working conditions. What's some advice??
I am 30 weeks tomorrow ,I feel your pain.
I had an easy pregnancy from the baby but a very stressfull and unsuportive one from my husband .
I have been working 12 hrs daily and still do 5 days a week as he is not helping with any bills nor anything for the baby .
I work 2 jobs one in day care and one babysitting/housekeeping so I am at this point at my ends but I have to keep on going because I am the only one providing for me and the baby.
I thought getting married having a baby all in the right order I will not have to so painful ,but I sure was wrong .
Now I am planning a birth and a divorce .
But we women are strong and we do so much and I know with God's help I will go through anything.

Wow good luck mama! I am 36 weeks and started crying this week when I was trying to change the sheets on my daughter's twin bed because I couldn't do it.
Take it easy and slow. Your health and babies is more important then employers approval
I'm 39 weeks and 2 days and can't even clean my house anymore I had to hire a maid. So good luck
Thank you, u right
So, if I were you I would try to go until you can't anymore. But, what people don't seem to understand is housekeeping is a hard job to do while pregnant. It's not like you're sitting in a chair all day, so I definitely know how you feel! But, you have to do what's best for you and your little one! Good luck hun!
I personally did housekeeping at a nursing home/ rehab facility and I recently put my notice in this week because it was getting to be way too much on me. I'm 37 weeks and a day.
Ok will do,
Get your Dr to write a note stating light duty only and then your boas has to follow the Dr note
