What would happen if I left my current company, started at a new one, and got pregnant before 12 months of service with the new company? For reference, I know new company requires 12 months for FMLA, and STD is 3 months.

If I’m not eligible for FMLA, what would that leave situation look like? Not currently pregnant but husband and I are wanting to start trying soon, just don’t want to be in a situation where I can’t take maternity leave. TIA!

Is being a realtor a maternity friendly job? I’ve been in residential sales for a year and I’m thinking of starting a family now. How did you manage to run your business and start a family at the same time? How long was your mat-leave for? Is being part of a team better than solo at this stage? Any advice would be appreciated ladies

Hi Folks, We have created this Bowl specific for married people and Parents who want to discuss about married life and Parenting discussions , If you find someone is bachelor and doing nonsense in DM..

Those of you looking for a surrogate, what are the top 3 things you desire with one and what are your deal breakers?

I worked in HR for 11 years, with my most recent role being HR Manager for a small company (12-60 employees). I shifted careers to Personal Training in December 2020 due to instability at the small company and my passion for health and wellness.

Now I am now looking to get back into an HR role, preferably in a Benefits Analyst or a Generalist role. What advice do you have for approaching companies? Do they see things like certifications and SHRM membership as advantages?

Thank you in advance!

But there's no mention of that in the OL...

Shall I ask her to generate a new OL or not required?

Thank you🙏🏾

Long story short, I have a bachelors in Public Health/Health Science, and no idea what to do with it. I currently am contracted with a disabilities agency in the vocational services side of things, working for $20/hr with no benefits. I realize this is a very low paying job, but I do not know the extent of the career options with the degree I have. I’d like to ask, what would be the highest paying/most rewarding career options for me?

Curious of non clinical salary in the dental field. I work in not quite ‘high end’ dental as insurance specialist. I am also front desk manager (tho not office manager). I was hired to do insurance and in the 2 months since I started I have been given a dozen more responsibilities. Insurance verification, front desk, answering phones, taking payments, training, all IT work (which I’m not even good at but I’m the only person under 50 in the office so it falls on me)

I'm in the offer stage for a job at Google. I live in Colorado, but will be working remotely. However, they are basing the salary on a Colorado location, which is actually lower than most of their other regions. Should I ask them to provide the minimum salary range for the role as per sb19-085 (8-5-20)?

Can anyone speak to their own experience having a housekeeper? I have always viewed this as the expense of super rich people. As I don't think we are this, I am having trouble deciding but I know we realistically need one. I work full time in consulting, husband in pharma. Just one kid. But too much time goes in to house chores. What does a housekeeper do? What do they not do? What hours do they typically work? And days? And where do you find them? For people that have outsourced in other ways,

Anyone have tips on actually “stopping the grind”? I’m in my second trimester of a high risk pregnancy and on busy clients until I’m due. (Senior Associate).

If I don’t stay up until al hours of the night, I won’t be able to get all my allocation done.. I’m stuck.

Anyone have advice on reviving a marriage that hasn't gotten any attention for too many years because kids and work come first?
My husband and I are pretty good co-parents, which is great, but he isn't very responsive to my attempts to make time for romance, & the relationship has died down after 19 years. (Sex is good but the emotional connection isn't.) Last kid at home graduates in 5 years, and we may become one of those couples that divorces after the kids leave the nest.

My three year old is losing his fingernails and toenails!! Two fingernails and one toenail (so far) lifting up from the cuticle base and falling off from the root.

The pediatrician said it could be from the HFAM that he had a month ago. Any other mamas experienced this before? If so, did your kids nails grow back? Is there anything that I can do to help this?

It’s painless for my son, but it is really worrying me.
