    Unhappy not sure what to do!!

    HI.

    I am 8wks and 6 days pregnant and didnt think i would yet be thinking about leaving work, but i am.

    I work in a childcare centre that only employs 7 staff, and have known my boss since i was 10 so she has been great, I have not been there for a year until the end of january and there is no paid maternity leave, but there will be a position when im ready to come back. The thing is that the business is getting taken over, so at the moment we really dont know what is going to happen. Anyway, there is a lady who i work with, who has been really negative and rude about my pregnancy for the last few weeks, which is making it hard and putting added stress on me which isnt helping, I have tried to cope with it but its getting too stressful and im considering resigning. I have tried talking to her about it, even spoken to my boss but nothing changed. My biggest worry is how it will affect us financially, Dh said that we will be fine, and he would rather that i was not stressing and bubba and i stay healthy, but if i leave it will be soon, maybe mid febuary when i will be around 17 to 18wks, and i wont get another job being pregnant and im concerned as to whether this is too early, financially we will struggle, but we should be ok.

    Sorry to ramble but i was just wondering what others opinions are. TIA
