I also think that if you want to bake something, you should do that.
I hope it goes well for you, and that you can make things work with the replacement therapist while she's away. I wouldn't worry about her not coming back, because she sounds like someone who cares about her job. She clearly cares about her clients.

I'm happy for her. I'm just not happy for me. And a bit jealous. And I so don't like her timing. The first few secondes after she told me I was like "you're pregnant? How long? Do you know what it's going to be? Another girl? How nice. Girls are the best! Blablabla.". But after I left the session, I only felt sad, scared, angry, abandoned. I've told her. I've even send her an angry and accusing email. But this all is because I think she's a good T. If I wouldn't and if I wouldn't like her, then I would have just changed to another T directly.
I hope I'll have the courage to ask about some interests of her.
So far the replacement T doesn't seem to be a bad T, but I've only had a few sessions with her.
I hope she comes back and she says she comes back and she is going to start a new study for some kind of T. But 5 months is a very long time and she will spend that with two cute baby girls, it is possible that she change her mind and will take some more time of work.
We will see.
And thank you.
