So Pregancy can be really annoying, if you have a job that you're used to giving 100% at.
Since becoming pregnant there are more and more things that I am not allowed to do at work per my co-workers/mother hens.
I am not allowed to:
* push wheelchairs
* gurneys
* beds
* move boxes, which pretty much means I cannot go into the supply closet
* let anyone else use the phone on my desk, due to germs
* deliver meal trays
* go into patient rooms
* assist with patient care
* carry charts back to the racks, I have to put them on a chair and push them back to their homes
what can I do? Sit, walk while not carrying anything, answer the phone and be pregnant!
I feel so terrible, I cannot do half the work I used to before getting pregnant. And I have missed so much work too, since May I have missed 5 weeks of work due to illness.
Don't fret, I'm sure you do a lot just being you. You're so fun to be around I'm sure your co-workers just look forward to the days that you are there. Not to mention the patrons you talk with on the phone or in person. This is your time to enjoy the ups and downs of pregnancy and will benefit those who you come in contact with that might be going through this in the future.
