Do you know how they will adapt your duties when you’re isolated in the building? My head wants me in the class full stop, wondering if I could suggest an alternative to her/HR

I know a lot of teachers here (I’m a teacher too) who have WFH after 28 weeks. They plan and prepare lessons, send to their maternity cover, and Mark any digitally submitted work. You should definitely be able to get something sorted
Congratulations!!! So glad you had a positive birth, but hopefully you will get out of hospital ASAP. Has your partner been able to visit at all?
@Tui do you have your sweep today? Good luck for it! Fingers crossed it gets things in motion!

I am going in twice a week and discussed it with my manager. She was quite vague about it but I researched it and as long as I socially distance etc then it’s fine. I struggle staying at home all week and some of my job just can’t be done at home so as long as I feel safe then I will go in and I could ask people to do things for me but I like things done my way. I am only 10 weeks and only my manager knows so I will see what happens when HR finds out. She said I don’t have to tell them yet.
Congratulations @Hbirdette 
So glad everything went well with the birth, hopefully you’ll be allowed to go home soon x

I work on a Cardiology ward, no rules as such but once I hit 28 weeks I will be medically suspended on full pay till it's time to take maternity.
I have no idea what to do about my job
I'm a wedding coordinator and when I'm doing my admin, emails etc then that's not problem because I can either do that at home or in a office where I'm socially distanced.
But the owner of the venue seems to want me to work actual weddings when they kick in and have me with my spd standing for 10+ hours at a wedding up to 39 weeks
Which I get lots of people do, but how can there be a guarantee that the weddings guests stay away from me?

I'm around 8 weeks today and nausea is getting worse and worse
I'm taking some pills (natural medicine with ginger, safe during pregnancy), and it's a little better, but still feel like a wreck... Also very tired, it's like I just can't get enough sleep.
Haven't thrown up yet though (sometimes I wish I did tho to have some relief...). Luckily I can still eat.
TTC was hard, but damn, this is hard as well
Have taken some days off coming weeks so that I don't have to work fulltime every week, because I just can't....
Going for my first scan tomorrow though, can't wait! Really looking forward to seeing what's going on inside
Hope you can go home soon!

Can you not start Your maternity leave just before that date to avoid having to go? It’ll be unbearable to stand around for that length of time at 39 weeks, never mind anything else.I have no idea what to do about my job

Feeling for you. I’ve started medication this week because the vomiting has become unbearable the past few days being sick after everything I eat and drink and I’m starting to panic on what sort of nutrients the baby will get from me if I’m this sick. Yesterday I had a melt down to my partner because I “just couldn’t cope anymore” felt like a big baby but it’s horrible.Congrats @Hbirdette

Sorry to hear that. Hope the medication will help!Feeling for you.

I'm lucky in a way, as I can at least keep my food down. Also cried on and off last night, boyfriend proooobably thinks I'm crazy
Ah well.I'm sure we'll get through this!
Thanks! I can't wait to see it, that'll make it less abstract.
