The More Things Change

When it comes to mixing work and pregnancy, I have been extremely lucky. With baby number one, I worked for a weekly paper whose maternity leave policy was, in essence, do what you need to do and come back when you're ready. With baby number two, I was (and, um, am) a freelance writer who also taught at a university and was off during the summer that I delivered. Hooray for me! Sadly, my experience has been the exception rather than the rule. Pamela Paul's impassioned column is a reminder that announcing you're pregnant can be a career killer. Hell, even just being female and therefore potentially pregnant is enough sometimes.
