How do I let my office manager and
coworkers know they are expecting too much
of me? I can't hop up and down from my
desk to help customers and run outside to
look at cars like I could before I got
pregnant. How do I tell them that I need
to sit at my desk all day without being
bothered without looking like a total
waste of space? I don't need to get
fired, but I don't need to work!

Good luck girl, i'd just e-mail them and
blame it on your doctor or something.
Tell them that the doc says you're doing
to much active things and that you are
able to work, he just suggests a little
lighter of a workload:) good luck!

Its probably because they know you arent
that far long yet. I mean your just tired
at this stage, and later youll have the
energy to do it. Like I still do the same
thing ive been doing and I dont complain.
Becuase my belly isnt even in the way lol
but tell them that you are very tired
right now and that you cant be running
everywhere, but maybe when you get your
energy you can

Glad to hear things are doing good.
Nice, a bigger bed, you'll need it for
when the lil one is sleeping with you,
lol. Can you imagine, when me and mike
were living with his gradmother, me mikey
and him slept on a twin size bed I couldn't even
do that with just mike again. I hope you
get to see what you are having I can't beleive
your that far along already. Boy does
time fly, wow! So, what is alma doing
for the summer?

Yeah thats why we got it, jose thinks the
baby is gonna sleep with us in the bed,
but the baby has a cradle for that. We
used to sleep on a twin at his house, it
was so squishing. Luckily I had a full
size and then it was not enough so now a
queen and whenever we get a bigger place
it will be a king. I like my space lol.
And its a firm bed so it feels cool. Mine
was real soft. I cant believe im this
far, its gone so slow yet so fast. I hope
I find out. Alma is going to school right
now at night and shes gonna quit her job
and hopefully babysit for this one girl
during the day, then when I have my baby
she will be my nanny too

Hey hun! I know it must be rough, but
they should be understanding, ur pregnant
and tired for goodness sakes! I wish I
didnt want to do work. At wwork for some
reason (even tho I sneak online a lot) I
always bust my butt to try to be the best,
I feel like I 'have' to do it, and I
always try and get the best 'stats' and
take the most callls etc (which I actually
do so I am a tad proud lol, I get the best
stats there, so im hopin to get a raise
soon!) I just wish I could relax and want
to take it easy and stop tryin to be a
perfectionist at it!
I couldn't even
do that with just mike again. I hope you
get to see what you are having 
I can't beleive
your that far along already. Boy does
time fly, wow! So, what is alma doing
for the summer?
