It's an amazing feeling! Especially now since we have lots of time to prepare for the holidays in the next months! Today I plan to bake up a storm because it's freezing outside!

Ahh that's great, hope you enjoy some 'you time' before baby arrives!

I'm From UK but living in NZ and over here maternity leave is awful! 14 weeks is the maximum you get with pay. Anything over that is zero pay and can only be up to 20 weeks. Awful!

 

[Xxenssial]

Yay enjoy your time off.

In my experience and as far as I know, mat leave in NZ is up to a year, but only 14 weeks paid - anything after 14 weeks is unpaid

Oh ok, my HR lady told me it was only up to 20 weeks! Or maybe I've misunderstood her
Either way, only 14 weeks paid is pretty crap

That's odd! Have you been working for the same company for a year minimum? I agree, 14 weeks does stink, especially considering it's not full wages...I was so hoping for a change in government to extend it

Yeah, same here! Oh well... At least we get a HUGE extension on it next year... To a whopping 16 weeks!
Yeah I've worked for the same company for almost two years now, I think maybe I just misunderstood what I was told... Wouldn't be the first time

I finish 2 weeks on Friday and could stay off until Jan 2016 too! But I have a lovely new job lined up for September 2015 with perfect hours so I'm just as happy! Yay to baking up a storm I'll be doing the same as I have my parents coming to stay for Xmas and I'm really looking forward to it! yay to maternity leave & meeting our little babies!
