update from Terri from Texas

Hi everyone, I am so sorry its been soooo long since I have posted.

About 3 weeks ago, I lost my job. I have been working there for

almost 2 years now and because I could not lift anything heavy, they

said they could not use me.....so because of my pregnancy and

inability to lift 50 lb boxes, they terminated me. Yea I know.

Amazing! I did purchasing, sales, inventory, desktop

publishing....office stuff....but on occasion, they wanted me to help

in shipping and receiving......(and I was on restriction from my OB

not to lift over 10 lbs since I am so high risk).....well, I was

terminated! I have already checked with an attorney and the EEOC and

apparently if the company has less than 15 employees, the

discrimination law does not apply to them. So....they can legally

discriminate and there is NOTHING I can do.......So.....it's been

weird for me to go from working and attending school to NOT working

and NOT attending school! However, it has given me some time for much

needed rest and now I am starting to decorate Lynzie's nursery. She

will be here before I realize it!

I am now 24 weeks pregnant and will have my Level II ultrasound this

coming Friday, Nov. 12. I cannot wait to see how she is growing. She

is kicking alot these days and you can watch my stomach roll around

and see her movements. Its so amazing. Our 12 year old son is just in

awe watching and feeling my belly. He is so excited! Little Lynzie

will be here in just 14 weeks now. We are planning to paint her

nursery in about 2 weeks. Pink of course!

Hope everyone is doing GREAT. Has anyone heard from ? I am sure

she has had her baby by now....I am dying to know how she and baby

are doing.

Hug to all
