Hello everyone! I am new to this board and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Melissa and I live in Mesa. I moved here nine years ago from New Jersey. My husband and I have been together for nine years and married for two. I've been working in the insurance industry for the past three years but currently I am on maternity leave. My daughter Hannah was born 2 and 1/2 weeks ago and I am loving being a new mom! This is the first time that I have stayed at home and not worked for longer than two weeks and I am finding that I have a lot of free time on my hands. There's only so much cleaning that I can (or want) to do in a day!
I hope everyone is having a great Thursday!
Re: Introduction
Hi and welcome to the board! Congrats on your new baby! Hannah is such a pretty name. We might need to seem some pics of her, if you don't mind showing them... we sort of like babies around here.
I'm due on Saturday and I'm wondering how I'm going to respond to being on leave. I've worked constantly since I was 15 years old, so it will definitely be a change of pace, although I imagine that taking care of a newborn is just as much "work" as anything else! I do plan to work part-time from home during most of my leave, though. How long are you taking off?
Thank you! I want to post a pic but I can't figure out how...
I had planned on taking 6 or 8 weeks leave, but I might go back sooner. I thought the same thing that having a newborn would keep me busy around the clock. But it's been pretty easy so far. She's been sleeping a lot. I thought that she would be constantly hungry or needing to be changed or held but I guess that comes later
So you're due on Saturday that's exciting! Do you know if you're having a boy or girl?Hi! And welcome! I live in Chandler and work in the Insurance industry as well.
you can upload it to somewhere like tinypic.com and then copy and paste the [ img ] code they provide you with
Aw, sounds like you've been blessed with a pretty easy baby! Nice!
I'm having a boy. His name will be Ryan.
Hi and welcome to the board, Congrats on your new bundle of joy, can't wait to see pictures
. I hope you enjoy your maternity leave. I love the name Hannah; it has always been one of my favorites.
A boy how wonderful
I love the name Ryan!
Welcome and congrats on the new little one!
I remember being bored on maternity leave like it was yesterday. It definitely flies by after its over though!

Thank you! I see you're getting married soon congratulations! I remember when I was planning my wedding time seemed to move super slow until about a month or two before, then time just flew by. Are you getting anxious for the big day?
