Are there any ladies who are or were pregnant and worked at dangerous jobs such as law enforcement or nurses or truck driving etc? how did you manage? when did you stop working and did you voluntarily stop working or did the doctor take you out? just trying to see other perspectives as for i am a sheriff deputy and very much love my job and have no problems doing it. Also i do have a belly.

I think do what feel right for YOU. If you find you're just incredibly uncomfortable or scared of the danger, then take a break. And don't be afraid to ask others for help if you need it. I hope they are nice to you!

Wouldn't you be put on light duty when they found out you were pregnant? I find in hard to believe you would be performing the same job functions without any restrictions during pregnancy. That is a liability for the city. Unless you lived in the town of Mayberry, I just don't see how you weren't put on light duty.
Just saying.

A lot of what you have said over the last few months weeks contradictory. It makes us feel like you are lying to us. It has happened to us before and we don't like it.

When you become pregnant, it's no longer about what you like or want, and all about what is best for the baby - actually I should say it should be that way, and especially if a person is purposely getting pregnant, that child should absolutely no questions asked, be of first and foremost importance IMO. No matter how much we love something - a job, a car, a friend... if that love was going to be potentially hazardous to our baby, and we had the option to have that risk removed from our life, we would all do it - no questions asked.
I'm not judging you for your decision or your choices... but you're upset that everyone isn't jumping on your bandwagon. It's a public forum - if we ask for opinions, we have to be prepared for all types of responses. You are trying to defend your job now, saying it isn't that dangerous - but you yourself posted this topic "any pregnant ladies in dangerous jobs?".
