Abstract
This study examines the lived experiences of four high school teachers who have taught while they were pregnant. The teachers’ experiences are contextualized within a feminist psychoanalytic theoretical framework. Current maternity leave policy in the United States and popular culture texts provide additional contextualization for the women’s experiences.
