when r u going on maternity leave?
I know we dont have to Let our bosses know yet But im going to. Im thinking of 2 weeks before my due date, going on the thing that yr first is usually late n i dont want to eat into my time off just waiting. I know that u can bring the date forward closer too if needed so if im Struggling can do that. Any advice/sharing of plans appreciated x

You can always change your mind closer to the time if its getting a bit much, or if you feel you can go on a bit longer.

Not sure whether to take an extra week this time round and whether this one might be a bit early, but will be really annoyed if I end up kicking my heels for 6 weeks before s/he arrives!
This time around all is a bit different as I am moving.... Im starting mat leave mid Jan and using holidays so that i finish at Christmas - im only working a 2 day week so think thats about 20 days Feeling rather guilty as only started back at start of this month from mat leave;) I told my boss when I was 9 weeks x
Its a tough decision to make but from previous experience I would say work as long as you can to get t ime with your baby but take your holdays now so that you can enjoy them whilst you are still mobile/active
