In my feelings.

I’m feeling pretty sad today. I worked really hard in a medical assistant school. Got a job that I loved but I had to quit because my kid was always getting sick and childcare was hard to find. I had planned on going back to work but I got pregnant and now I’m back where I started in the first place that motivated me to go to school in the first place. 🥇 feel like all that hard work was wasted. I really want to work (in the medical field) but I can’t right now since I have to stay home with the kids.

I get it! I was a MA for a couple years then went to nursing school, graduated and then got pregnant and now I’m a SAHM. I turned down my dream job in the NICU and that was one of the hardest decisions I had to make. But something that I always remind myself is that nursing (or any medical job) will always be there and there will always be a need and future opportunities. Time with your babies watching them grow won’t be. I see it as a blessing to be able to stay home with my baby right now.

Same girl! I went to school for medical assistant, worked at the hospital, I loved it, I moved away from family and applied at the hospital here, got called I was super excited but I couldn’t take it because no one to watch my kids and since it was a new place I didn’t want to leave them home alone, I’m 4 yrs In as a stay at home mom and always will always love the medical field, so I truly understand, but yes had 2 more kids on top of the 2 I already have and I wouldn’t leave them with anyone and I am happy I get to be with them without worries, but like you I truly miss what I did.

Nice to know I’m not alone.
