Resolved Question: Questions about your decision to be a working mom/SAHM? (Thu, 26 Aug 2010 20:20:57 GMT)

Basically I'm just curious about how you (and your husband/partner) made the decision to be either a working mom or a SAHM. Also, if you're a working mom: Do you have any plans to eventually be a SAHM? Perhaps when you have more children? SAHMs: Do you have any plans to eventually go back to work? Like maybe when you're done having children and they are all in school? For me, going back to work was absolutely necessary. My pregnancy was unplanned and even the 7 weeks of maternity leave I t

Resolved Question: Issues with MIL during pregnancy...? (Sat, 14 Aug 2010 16:36:49 GMT)

I'm going to apologize now at the length of this, but my MIL is staying with my husband and me while we sort out our work situation. My husband had been out of work for a year, so he stayed at home and watched our son. He got a job about three weeks ago and asked his mother to stay with us to watch our son, because I have to work at least part time during the week to keep health insurance (I am currently almost 24 weeks pregnant). At first, everything was fine. Then we started noticing that o

Resolved Question: Do you HAVE to be a mother to donate eggs? (Thu, 12 Aug 2010 16:44:46 GMT)

I am a healthy twenty four year old who doesn't want children. I was wrongly told at the age of 11 that I couldn't carry to term due to a spinal injury from a car accident. It turns out I healed perfectly but it took over ten years for the doctors to figure that out. I grew up with motherhood simply not being an option or priority and I like the lifestyle I adapted to - however I remember what it felt like, at that young age, to be told I couldn't. I am fully sympathetic and compassionate towa

Resolved Question: Have you seen what the Republican Convention in Texas has as it's agenda.? (Tue, 13 Jul 2010 22:43:14 GMT)

Another exercise in extremism. That’s our take on the new party platform adopted by Texas Republicans at their state convention on June 12 in Dallas. See our analysis of the platform here. The full platform is here. Among the planks: * Separation of church and state is a myth. * Teach junk science in public schools. * Give politicians on State Board of Education — instead of teachers and scholars — even more power to decide what students should learn. (And give the SBOE authority

Sorry if this is complicated: I just became eligible for STD insurance with my company this past month. I am expecting my first child July 15. I know I am eligible for STD after I give birth, but I would like to be able to take two weeks off before I give birth. I don't even care if it's paid -- I just want to know that me taking two weeks off before won't effect my eligibility for STD coverage afterward. I haven't yet asked my doctor for a note excusing me from work, because frankly I fee

Resolved Question: Has anyone filed for California State Disability Insurance for first trimester with history of miscarriages? (Wed, 02 Jun 2010 18:15:29 GMT)

I'm 5 weeks pregnant and I have history of three miscarriages during the first trimesters. My job requires standing up all day long and my manager approved my leave of absence for the first trimester this time. And I found out that I have to apply for the state disability plan first before I apply for the company's paid disability leave in California. I'm generally healthy and I have no serious health conditions, but with my history of miscarriages, do you think my case would be pregnancy wit

What I can't find out is this, I want to take my leave from work at 37 weeks. When am I actually eligible to apply for short-term disability benefits? When I leave work or when the baby is actually born? And does leaving work early affect my eligibility? My pregnancy has been completely healthy. There is no medical reason to leave a

I am 22 weeks pregnant with my first. My job is absolutely doing everything they can to get me to quit. I truely believe that if I was not pregnant they would just fire me but they are concerned about the liability of firing someone that is pregnant. I do not have the option to quit because I would lose all my medical insurance and not get unemployment. I have thought of talking to my boss and letting him know that I know what they are trying to do and I would sign something saying that they w

Resolved Question: I'm trying to get pregnant. Can I get short-term disability insurance now? (Sun, 28 Feb 2010 21:43:28 GMT)

So I just talked to a friend of mine who is 11 weeks pregnant and she was telling me about all the disability leave options and I wondered if disability insurance like Aflac will cover the difference in wages. On their website it says it does but only if you give birth more than 10 months after the policy is effective. I'm not pregnant yet but should ovulate any day. This is our second round on Clomid. I ovulated last time but we did not get pregnant. I'm really hoping this is our month. Is t

I'm not pregnant but I am curious.

I'm not talking about through private insurance (short term disability) but anything from the state, etc.? And also, if the husband is working but it isn't enough, how would one survive paying bills? I just wonder cause this has to be a common occurence. Thanks My question doesn't per

My husband is continuously lazy. He will do things on his on (when he feels like it), but not when you ask him. But if his mother or sister calls, he breaks his neck getting to them to help them. I am 35 weeks pregnant and just had to install the car seat in the car all by myself. Then I had to put together a cart because he decided that instead of helping me he would go and hang with his friends. I told him to get out, but he refuses to leave until the morning.

Resolved Question: Short term disability pay after pregnancy? (Tue, 12 Jan 2010 20:34:57 GMT)

I have medcost insurance and am entitled to 12 weeks of unpaid leave from my company when the baby comes. My short term disability pays 60% of my salary, but this I'm told is only for as long as my doctor okays me for. I'm told the standard is 6 weeks. I need to take the full 12 as it's our first child and I have no family here to help me with him. Of course I'd love to have the full 12 at 60% rather than only 6. Does anybody have any experience with this?
