It seems to me that giving birth to and raising a child is a full time job.

I never bought into the women wanting to "have it all" philosophy, but that's just my opinion.

As far as pregnant women at the workplace, aren't there safety issues? Aren't there liability concerns?

The company might be doing you and your wife a favor.

I am shocked by such progressive views expressed here. This is why US is truly behind in regards to maternity leave benefits. Women are truly discriminated in this country (based on the opinion above). Having a baby does not equal having your brain removed. FREEDOM OF CHOICE. Many of us women are capable of raising a child and being gainfully employed. Wow.. I am floored by the ‘have it all’ comment. Seriously, do you know women can vote now? Regarding safety issues - shockingly enough many women these days have white-collar jobs: doctors, lawyers, accountants...
