is there a way you can talk to your employer about the fact that you have a medical condition at the moment, and need reduced duties (i know your dr will write you a letter if needed) - so no heavy lifting, and you need to sit for serving - or at least have the option?

i think scooby pointed out the main point - you have to do what is best for you and baby - not what is best for them - a job is a job - what you're looking at is a life babe
