The National Postdoctoral Association's ADVANCE project has developed a new online resource, “A Postdoc’s Guide to Pregnancy and Maternity Leave,” that may be of use to women postdoctoral scholars in your community. The guide provides general information on pregnancy and maternity leave for postdocs, including tips on keeping your research going and talking with your postdoctoral supervisor.
The guide covers such topics as: Research Concerns for your Pregnancy; Maternity Leave and Federal Funding Guidelines; and Making a Maternity Research Plan.
You can find it here: http://www.nationalpostdoc.org/publications/563-maternity-guide
Planning for pregnancy and maternity leave can present an array of complexities for postdocs due to the position’s temporary nature and the variety of funding sources. The goal of this guide is to provide a postdoc with some initial guidance on how to find the detailed information that may apply to her situation at her institution.
You must have heard of those common pregnancy symptoms and must have been mentally prepared for them. But, are you prepared for one of those highly unusual early pregnancy symptoms? At times, pregnancy symptoms can be extremely varying and unpredictable. Those symptoms raise height of anxiety and confusion, making it very difficult for women to detect their pregnancy.
