Alla:

I would not call her a working mother because she came to fight in 
the battle. I call her working mother because I did not hear anything 
about her leaving Aurorat after she became pregnant. Not for one 
second I assumed that she did because she stayed with a kid who was 
not even one year old yet.

I know several women in RL who left their job in the middle of their 
pregnancy and came back few months after child was born.
