Just curious what others would do in this situation ...
I'm currently a SAHM (was a lawyer before I quit 3.5 years ago, and would prefer to never go back to law again). Expecting baby 2 in late June / early July. I've been thinking about going back to work before I found out I was pregnant, but being pregnant is adding a whole new wrinkle to this.
ideally, i would like to work part time / flex hours (not in legal, but maybe doing non profit policy work or writing?) but those jobs seem rare here. It seems like it's pretty much all or nothing (full time or nothing)
Is it even worth my while to look for a job right now, knowing in 6 months I'll be out on leave? Will anyone even be open to hiring someone who will look very visibly pregnant soon? I mean, I know legally they can't say no based on that but I'm sure it still plays a big part in whether they decide to hire you or not.
Adding to the problem - my husband is finishing up his specialty training in May/June and there's a good chance we will have to move if he doesn't get an offer in our area. So there's a 50/50 chance we won't even be living in this area past July...
What would you do if you were me? My head is hurting from all the options :T
