This is the story of every working woman as she goes through her pregnancy. She has to stick on to her job even if unhappy because no one else will hire her. The 6 month maternity leave is another issue why employers don't want to hire pregnant women. It is time employers understand that they are not doing any favour to the woman by giving her the 6 month leave. When it starts feeling like a favour, women find it difficult to get back with the same vigour and enthusiasm.
Thank you Swati. You are so right. It can be one of the bigger dampeners when mothers returning to work are made to feel like they are being extended a favour.
