Everything is going to be alright. I know is hard at first, but eg my mother get back to work as soon as I have 3 months, I don't want to be negative, but she feel pain in her breast everytime I was hungry, and at that time, she used public buses and she worked more than 50 hours per week. But she says that at the end of the day, she always feel great when, at home, she feed me and listen to me, and on freetime she were as much time as possible with me. Besides, is a liberating thing to work, that way you can distratc a bit from your rutine, and don' t be a desesperade house wife. TRUST ME. Finally I thing is allways good to have extra bucks, and I' m pretty sure Camila will be in good hands with her grantmother. Do not worry ma friend. Concentrate in live as good as you can your pregnancy and then when the times come, you'll see. Well, For sure I can tell you one thing. Everything is going to be alright.

Of course, if they offered it I'd take it in a heartbeat, but work here is done the traditional way: you get up in the morning, go to work, and then leave in the afternoon; all this while my precious baby stays at my mom's. Ew. Just ew. And 2 weeks UNPAID??!! Well, I guess I just found the bright side to living in Costa Rica. That, and the cheapest medicine ever. Like free.

A lot of women find it a *relief* to get back to work. So you might be one of the lucky ones that feels that way. Here in the US, we get 2 weeks unpaid maternity leave. Or something like that. Genius, eh? Sorry I can't answer your question as to how other women do it. I've never been there, myself. And my mom didn't work until I was in 3rd grade. Your employer doesn't offer "telecommute" options, or anything like that? Or flex-time which would be part-time telecommute part-time onsite? Hm.
