we found a "mom or dad" quiz on amazon and filled it out and had guests guess answers- person with most points won. It was cute, questions like, "who wants a minivan more, who will be the stricter parent, who will change the first diaper". Also, not for prizes but really fun for the parents is to have guests fill out a prediction sheet: gender/name/date of birth/size/etc - really cool to re-look at once baby does come

I was talking with my director the other day about how I think the US should be implementing longer maternity leave policies and generally better parental leave policies for parents who have given birth/had a partner give birth/adopted a child, and she said it was "a crackpot idea meant to push socialist agendas." Where do I even start...The countries with better parental leave policies are MILES ahead of us.

Some context: agency let go about 15% of the company a month ago. I was warned by my dept lead more layoffs could happen if we don’t win new business soon. I’m 35w pregnant.

What scenario (if any) is most likely:
- That I’m let go before my mat leave begins
- I’m let go during mat leave
- I’m let go immediately after returning from mat leave

Seems like potential PR nightmare for them, but I can’t ignore the fact that I was given a heads up that layoffs could happen.
