Ok I just have to get this off my chest! I just got in the house from work and I'm really pissed off, my job knows that I'm pregnant I'm 4 months. I work n the shoe department at Macy's and they still seem to expect me to overwork myself like lift certain things. Since the holidays coming the store is much busier! Today from me lifting so many boxes my back hurts even more and I bumped my stomach at the edge of a chair! I feel like smackin the **** out of them. I'm quitting and gettin me another job that doesn't require much.

just gotta throw this out there..today i actually knocked my 4 year old off his feet (with my belly)because he walked into my belly.I'm 30 wks.it was so hard not to laugh as i picked him up off the ground.so if your bumping stuff now better be very careful it only gets bigger..luckily it didn't hurt me and we are both having a talk about making room for mommy wen walking/running around.

It sounds like a tough day, but remember that it could be much worse. There are many moms that work on their feet all day, etc. As long as you're not lifting above the weight designated by your doctor (at that point for me, it was 40 lbs), you should be fine. I used to waitress and had friends there that were pregnant- constantly running around to their tables, carrying trays (of drinks, not food generally), and more, and they did that up until delivery. If you want to leave, make sure whatever you're going to will actually be better for you than what you're leaving.
