Maternity Leave
Ok so Im a bit ahead of myself, but my best friend starts her maternity leave today so I have been thinking when I might leave.
Last time I worked until 34 weeks and then took holiday. Im already suffering with SPD so I think this time I may go earlier. A lot of the July mummies who are further gone than me (29 weeks on) are really struggling and a few have been signed off until maternity leave starts.
I manager a care home for challenging behavior, so Im having to weigh up the risks as well. Im also expected to work over xmas, but its not going to happen. So I think I maay leave at 29 weeks, which is the week of xmas. I know its early, but Luke and I will have some quality time together and as Im not thinking of returning to work, it wont mean I have to return early.
I kind of feel a bit lazy leaving so early, but oh well I'll soon make up for it runnning around after 2 under 2.
Have any of you had any thoughts? xxx
