It is now regarded as outrageous for employers to ask women if they are pregnant and when a baby is due. I suppose in todays PC world employers should simply cope with a job not being done when suddenly someone is rushed off on maternity leave for a few months.

It really is beyond me.

Now that we have "paternity leave" couldn't employers ask both sexes if they are going to take time off to look after a baby?

Stop it Honey! Men will start wearing black to Awards Ceremonies! Or do they anyway? Perhaps #MeTooThree can start with all males in red Dinner Jackets?

Many women do go back to work a few months after giving birth. Normally though they want or need shorter hours, also employers needs to know do they need to hire more stuff.

Not all pregnancies are smooth and if it's severe then some women can take months if not years to recover.

Where's Mark Dice when you need him or Infowars?

A friend of my mother's to took years 2 cover from her pregnancy, has her vagina was ripped and torn during labour.

seems reasonable to me.

One of the few mistakes I made was to be lured to a job by a powerful female I really liked (she wanted mt renowned expertise)with the express purpose of working with her.

Within 2 months she became pregnant (stop it- she was married) & took 6 months off and upon return the same thing happened.

I never actually got to work with her rather her hideous demanding idiotic replacement..eventually leading to a frigging 4 year lawsuit (which I wonfor the company breaching our contract.

Well yes, a massive head goes through it, but most women get over it very quickly, or learn to live with it.
I had my daughter at dawn and by twelve we were home and eating the lunch I made one-handed.

You must have spent your whole life terrified of impregnating people?!
