Honestly outside of paid maternity leave, all of the perks offered are just “check the box” fluff to sound good that mean nothing if they don’t offer work/life balance and flexibility.

Like thank you for paying for me to ship my milk back when I’m on a work trip, but I’m only doing that because you demanded I spend multiple days away from my baby that still nurses in the middle of the night.

This. That was my exact reaction upon learning that my firm offers the wonderful benefit of shipping my breast milk.

Deloitte provides a pump for each pregnancy, lactation consultant services for 6 months, up to 24 weeks paid leave depending on delivery, and I got a book about taking care of an infant.

I thought FMLA was only 12 weeks and that it was unpaid? Recently found out I’m expecting, and our employee handbook makes it seem like FMLA is unpaid. I probably just need to talk to someone in HR

Is anyone on a low dose of Adderall or a similar stimulant, and do you find it helpful/effective?

When I was diagnosed (at 20 yo) I started on Adderall XR and my psychiatrist essentially took a “keep upping the dose until you feel side effects” approach, even though I still saw some benefits at a lower dose. I’m currently unmedicated and am somewhat hesitant to restart, but feel I could see some benefit and better stability with the help of medication.
