Im only 11 weeks and my husband already wants me to quit. And to be honest i would love to. But i would feel so guilty. I have worked since the day i turned 16. Amd have never not worked. So im stuck like u... kinda. Not sure what to do. But talk to him and just ask him how he feels.

I work at home, but miss being out in the actual marketplace.  It really did keep me active and moving, and I actually knew what was in style at the clothing stores and got to read a magazine every now and then.  Of course, some jobs are too exhausting or just too much, at the end of pregnancy, but if you're going to be off after the baby comes, stick with the job as long as you can because it can be pre-t-t-y bo-ring and isolating just to be home watching the baby.

I'm at the point now that I want quit but I'm so close and working keeps me active and keeps me moving. Hoping it helps bring the baby sooner (: good luck!

Honestly, going from working to NOT working when you become a mom (or even at the end of your pregnancy) is a hard transition, asking for things when you need it, or want it, etc. is hard. But if you have a supportive boyfriend I really wouldn't worry about it, he knew you weren't going to be able to work your entire pregnancy, or right after the baby was born, I'm sure, he's probably expecting it. Just talk to him about it, and get some reassurance, you really need to be relaxing these last few weeks!
