I'm Currently Feeling: | Maternity leave Hey girls,
Just wondering when you guys are starting your maternity leave?? i'm due aug 27th and am thinking about starting the end of June when i'm just over 7month, the only reson being is once i go on maternity leave my OH can go fulltime, i get a whole yr off work paid so with that and my OH wages we will be ok. But they wondered when you guys are starting yours?? plus i have very funny hours and sometime i work til 8 at night and start again the next day at 8, which i find hard now,
xx thanks xx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I am due July 15th (could be a week earlier according to mw). I plan on working right up until I pop. I only get 6 weeks and I want all that time to be with the baby. Of course, this is if everything goes the way it should. If I need more time off, it's not paid but my job is guaranteed. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'm due on 5th August and plan to start my maternity leave on 4th August. I'll be taking annual leave for 5 weeks before though, so I should finish work at the end of June.  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Well im due middle of sep, I've put in for my leave at the start of Aug. We have our year put into quarters and that would be the end of one so I think it's easier. Plu I have shift work, i'll finish at 11-11:30 then start and 730 next morning, it's stressful! |
