Shift Work

Any pregnant mummies work shifts? I work 12 hr shifts (morning, night, off, off) from 8-8 and I am so tired. I don’t even enjoy work anymore and I work in a male dominated workplace and honestly, they are not very understanding when it comes to pregnancy. I told my supervisor about my morning sickness and he didn’t seem to care much. Another supervisor asked me what’s my plan after maternity leave when I was only 5 weeks pregnant and still had a long way to go!!!! I’m currently 13 weeks pregnant and I’m honestly so stressed from work and I’m so scared it will affect my baby because let’s be honest, if anything happens to my health or my baby’s it’s not like the company will take responsibility right. Any advice or anyone going through the same thing? 😭

Take it easy at work. Take a break when u need and work your best. Do not care about other opinions. Taking what is legally given maternity leaves and Mc won’t affect performance review. Even if it affects, it’s just less/no bonus for a year. Hang in there!
