Ladies im really not sure what i want to do about maternity leave so thought id ask for some advice as i only have 7 weeks left to decide.
So im due 18th of Dec ... what an awkward time with christmas and whatnot so i could really really do with being paid as much as i can throughout the ENTIRE month of December.
So if i were to count back 6 weeks (at 90% pay) from the end of December that would take me to the 2nd week in November ... then i have 10 days leave left so i could take that which would mean finishing work on the 31st of October, but still being on full pay through November!!
Has anyone got any ideas or thoughts on ways to maximise my money/when i go on maternity leave. Ideally id like to go as early as i can, but not leave myself short for money!!
Going from £1800 a month to under £500 will be a big drop and i just dont want to leave things tight over December
