Starting a new job @ 28w

I'm due July 10th. Do you think it's possible to just take maternity leave June 20th? I'm a vet tech and I do a lot of manual stuff but I've been able to keep up for the most part

I haven't been able to tell my new job yet. I was going to wait until I was fully onboarded. Is that a good idea?

Hi! Yes please don’t tell them until you’re onboarded. I got an offer and thought telling them then would be a great idea, turns out that was a bad idea. They keep pushing my start date and won’t get me onboarded although my offer had a start date. Please be careful and wait until you actually start just so they don’t discriminate against you. And regarding the maternity leave, just ask HR then. It could be part of the maternity leave or as PTO.

Sun beds when pregnant

What's everyone's opinion I stopped sun beds when I found out I was pregnant I'm now 17 weeks but I have psoriasis and sun beds helped so much with my condition. I keep getting mixed opinions about using a sun bed I'm think off going back 1 / 2 times a week for 6 minuets to help with this but people keep putting me off. Has anyone had the same experiences or any advice 🫶🏼

Most people won't get this but I struggle because I've only ever dated men before but married a woman.

I love her but I don't know anyone in my position. All the bisexual female friends are with men. I sometime just miss the ease of not being judged, not having to explain who we are etc etc. I do miss the ease of sex with men and being come on to. I miss being a bit more "looked after" financially and emotionally. Neither of us want to be the breadwinner so we're always trying to be equal but maybe no one wins 🤔

Earning money

Hi ladies,
Is there any tried and trusted ways of earning money on your phone whilst being a full time stay at home mum? Anything that’s fairly easy and doesn’t take days to complete. I’ve tried surveys but some can take days to complete and I quite often forget a day or two so I’ve lost out.

Thanks in advance :)🫶
