I'm 27 weeks tomorrow and I currently work full time at the hospital. My job is straining were always on our feet and we get two 15 min breaks and a half hr lunch but sometimes its really hard to get those breaks in especially when busy and today I worked overtime and didn't take my last break and I'm exhausted my feet hurt n my back so bad and its starting to get like this all the time any suggestions? Should I talk to my Dr about not working as many hours?

Maybe they can give you a light duty job or less hours. If you get a doc note you should be fine... Not a hundred percent sure, hope for the best for you

I know how you feel. I work full time job with the mentally disabled, which can be very stressful due to behaviors and needing breaks, any ways if you feel that the stress is getting to you id talk to your Dr. Bout it.
