Hiya, my boss is flexible, I can finish when I want to because I will get m/a not smp.
I was going to finish on November 8th, now I`m thinking perhaps I should hang on till the end of November as i want to stay at home with my new baby as long as possible.
Due 3rd Jan
Just thinking about getting all the xmas shopping for the other 3 kids with a huge bump ..... OMG

i dont work im a stay at home mummy but i remember when my maternity leave was coming up with my first pregnancy and i was so excited but at the same time i was scared!! going from being in the workplace to being at home with not much to do was a bit daunting
i missed everyone and all the gossip lol, i liked the goodbye pressies i got for baby though
hope your time goes quick then you can relax a little more14/10/08 12:47

8th December is my last day so just over 7 weeks to go, i'm using holiday and the fact the place where i work closes from 23rd december until 4th january so i start maternity leave on the 5th January and baby is due 25th. I'm hoping to take a year like i did with dd so wont be going back to work until 2010

I finish work in 7 weeks & 3 days (not that i'm counting hehe!), although i'm using holiday allowance so my actual maternity leave won't start until a week later...

I finished last fri but have 5 weeks holiday to take, then starting materity at 29 weeks. Its great being off and spending time with dd and dh x

My maternity leave is due to start 15th December but I'd planned to finish work on the 2nd December and sit an exam on the 9th December.
But I've been off the last 2 days feeling rather tired and rough(think mainly due to dh giving me his cold), but I think I'm going to change all my dates and finish a bit earlier. My firms holiday and sick year don't start until 1st November so I can't take any more time off in October as won't get paid.
