Part time job

Congrats on your pregnancy! At 17 weeks, part-time work is generally quite manageable, many mums do retail, tutoring, or admin roles right up to their third trimester, though honestly it really depends on how your body is coping because some days the fatigue just hits differently. One thing I'd flag though: if you're starting a new part-time job now, do check that you'll hit at least 3 continuous months of service before your maternity leave kicks in, otherwise you may not qualify for paid leave, a friend of mine only found this out quite late and it was stressful. Also worth knowing that legally, companies can let you go during pregnancy as long as they cite another reason, so just be a bit careful about which employers you approach and how stable the role seems. Something flexible like private tutoring or freelance admin work gives you more control over your hours and honestly less exposure to workplace politics when you're pregnant.
