Can I start my parental leave before my child is born, so that I don’t hit the bench? My current roll off date lines up with my wife’s delivery date and it’s looking like the baby is going to come late.

I was told to give one students “food rewards” when he does what he is supposed to do. I will only do this if others on task gets the same reward. Non-perishable, kid friendly, bite size food ideas?

Great quote form Mimi Slater of @cosbar on motherhood and work: “I don’t think my career path has changed because I became a mother. But, I think my approach to work has changed for the better. I didn’t realize how hard it would be to leave a 12-week-old at home, but I’m so glad I forced myself to get to work in those early days. It took me a while to get back into the swing of things, but now I think that being a mother is a total asset in the workplace. I don’t waste a minute of my workday. I’m better at juggling priorities, and I think I’m more empathetic, certainly towards other working parents.”

Why is maternity coverage for Wipro's health insurance so less? Haven't seen such a less coverage in any of the company I know.. even for small start ups they have much better coverage..

How do people feel about continuing to send money for the war. I 100% support Ukraine but we are providing so much more than the entire EU and we have our own problems at home. I feel for Ukraine but how about using that $40b to fly baby formula here if they are getting stuck on ships. Or programs for the homeless or drug abuse. Why can’t we expect EU to match us and really contribute more given it’s their backyard. We can’t be the bank for all wars.

Do you think it’s worth waiting for Black Friday sale for strollers etc.? Or generally there are no discounts on baby stuff. Wondering if I should buy now or wait - baby is due in Jan.

This is a long shot. Anyone’s spouse bilingual but you’re not? So you learned the language while baby did and tried to only speak it. I feel like I am over planning. But Spanish alone from dad isn’t enough. And i want to give the gift of bilingual.

Hey peeps. How do y’all deal with in laws that think they have the right to see your kid basically on demand. It’s my parents actually, not my wife’s. I’m about to give them an ultimatum......

Hi All, Is is worth to join tech Mahindra from Mindtree with small experience of 5-6 months. How is Work life balance? Job security? Projects? Bench policy..etc.,

Pregnant and covid positive. Fever has broken but I'm now coughing up a very little blood with phlegm. Anyone go through something similar? Waiting for my ob to call me and let me know if I need to head to ER or wait this out.

So I started a new job in March and also got pregnant the same month. The new job is at a small firm and they never had a pregnancy so they do not have policies in place. Who do I tell? There’s one head admin person, two named partners one of which is generally MIA. So nervous about it.

So I'm a single dad, which I feel can be tough sometimes - doesn't fit with gender norms. It's the professional equivalent of not having baby changing stations in the mens room.

does anyone know of any books related to the phenomenon of “gifted child burnout”?

Brand new (like, just-had-a-kid new) mom here. Life seems manageable with the baby sleeping much of the time. It gets worse from here doesn’t it? I’m scared 😱😱😱

What do you do if you are genuinely afraid to tell your boss you’re quitting? I’m terrified of what their reaction is going to be and don’t know how to tell them. They have been a great boss, I just got an opportunity I cannot pass up. Any advice would be amazing.
