| I am 13 weeks pregnant, have a 5 year old in kindergarten which goes only a half day and broke and need help. I have been with a photography company for 4 years it is seasonal and beginning again at the end of Jan but I dont think I will be able to do it this year cause it requires travel and sitting for up to 10-16 hours a day almost everyweekend til June. I have been able to make ends meet til now I am in debt and have been looking for a job but have had no luck finding one that would be worth working and having to pay for childcare. I am a competant person going through a really rough time and having no luck. No one wants to be flexible with me working aroung taking my daughter to school in the afternoon. I am going to go back to school for a semester to learn how to build websites so I have another skill cause I will have to take a break from my photography job and maybe I will be able to do something from home once I have my second child. But I am what can I do now?I don't want to work at a bar or anything like that...but maybe I'll have to.... |

| I went to work for a local grocery store when I was about 6 months pregnant with my first child. They are flexible with schedules and time off for maternity leave, they usually offer really good benefits and the one I worked at offered really good hourly rates. I only worked as a cashier for about 2 months then I moved into the bookkeeping office. When I came back after having my baby, I worked for them for almost 2 years while I finished school.Alot of people look down on service or retail positions but they can offer alot of benefits. You may also want to try and keep your photography job as long as you can physically can. With both of my pregnancies I worked up until a week prior to my due date, not because I had to, but because there was no reason not to. Most women, even pregnant women, are stronger than people gives us credit for. :-)Good Luck. |
