Just wondering
Is anyone on maturity leave yet? I feel like my job is beginning to b to much!
Wow!! One year!!! So lucky! I'm happy for you and wish I had the same! Hopefully, you can go out early. Do what's healthiest for you and baby.
Lucky enough he says do whatever i feel best for me...but i think im going to try n reduce my hours below full time in see how that goes first.
With my first I was 36 weeks and I hated being at home, I was bored and feed up of waiting. With my second i waiting until two days before due date which for me was great as I wasn't say waiting for baby to be born and this time my partner and I chose for me not to work at all, as I was working which adults with challenging behaviour and didn't want to rush the pregnancy (in still fed up with being at home) :) there's no right or wrong answer. Luckily in the UK you can have up to a year and your job is still yours when you decide to get back. If your struggling maybe ask for reduced hours but that can affect money, also speak to your partner and see what he thinks. Xx
I'll be taking mine at 37 weeks, so I have as much time as possible with the baby. I dunno if I can make it that long though, I keep dozing off whenever I sit to do work at my computer and I really hope no one sees me and get in trouble
Wow the U.S need to get like Canada...thats amazing! I know some states here offer that but not mine
If i leave now or at 30 weeks it will b a medical leave until i have the baby then turn into maternity leave. I wont get paid until the maternity leave but im good financially. But i have a stressful job and i am on my feet the whole time. I was suppose to b leaving around 34 weeks originally back when they had me delivering around 38 weeks. But they have pushed me up to 36 weeks now if i keep my health right otherwise its going to be earlier than that. Im a high risk pregnancy so it hasnt been easy especially with my blood pressure
I'm in Canada and I get 1 year off for maternity leave also my position as manager is still mine when I return. I'm thinking I will be leaving August 17th which I'll be 36 weeks and give me a couple weeks before my son arrive's
What does your day about taking longer than the alloted 6 week maternity leave? Do you get paid and can you come back anytime?
22 weeks...i was thinking around 30 weeks but after today i dont know if im going to make it to that lol i have already dropped myself down to 34 hours a week and docs already have me on restrictions
I posted this question the other day, when are you planning on taking maternity leave? I'm 24 weeks 3 days
No not yet but I REALLY want to be!!! I've been calling in sick at my day job to sleep from my night job. It's bad and I feel guilty but I'm SO TIRED! I have 17 more weeks until 40 weeks but yes it's getting too much to lug this belly and large body around!
