So close to giving up

Question

Hi mamas, I am facing extreme stress from work recently and I am sooooo close to giving up..My boss came to me and assumed that my family is asking me to rest more so my work is affected??The fact is... ever since i got pregnant i havent taken any MC.. never request for additional wfh .. i continue working after hours and over time(work till 1/2am once).. i never slack and sometimes skip meals(i know is bad but i snack)Not only that but my workload has increased alot along with the responsibilities that comes with it...I feel quite discriminated even though boss is a women? unsure why she wil say that to me...She often say that during her pregnancy she could still do alot of stuff out of the norm that pregnant women usually do?(like climbing, carrying)At this point i really want to quit my job but my husbands pay definitely cannot sustain the family, house and bills..I am unsure what to do apart from tahan-ing#advicepls #pleasehelp #firstbaby

Sounds like what I went through too. My boss was also a lady and a mother of 3 at that. But somehow she and my team were not supportive the moment they knew I was pregnant. I eventually left my job after 3 months of tolerating their nonsense as i did not conceive easily and my mental health and baby mattered more to me. Could you perhaps try to look for a part time job or a job to get income just to tide through your pregnancy period?
