i was a PhD student and a monographs and journal editor at a publishing house.

took leave of the PhD at 30 weeks due to crazy stress and poor support networks for students in 'special circumstances'.

finished up my editorial position at 35 weeks.

glad i finished both when i did. got a chance to chill and kind of savour the moments of the pregnancy (and well, induldge in daytime tv and nanna naps). DD arrived at 38 weeks so didnt get as long as i thought...
