I'm having a little boy!!! The first image on the screen was a bottom and a pair of testicles, so we had no choice but to know!!i'm due 9th Sept i'm fininising week orso b4,how was ur scan yday? i hadmine yday aswell. I'm having a little girl! x
The only think I'd think about is going off so early is it will effect how long you have off with the baby afterwards, unless yr not going back to work?
i'm going to take the full paid amount of time of (6 wks at 90% pay then 33 wks at SMP) I am also in two minds whether to go back to work as i have a second job that pays me 2/3rds of my wage for working half a day a week. I can not increase the number of hours on this second job so i can not earn any more money - however it gets you thinking when you work a 45 hour week for £315.00 or you can do a 4 hour week for £200.00 (no, im not pimping my body out )
I teach, and am due on the 5th Sept.. So I will start on the 1st Sept but then have the 6weeks hols before. I'm a Head of Department so am tempted to try and go in for the meetings on the first day! Think I may need to be driven in though!!
I teach aswell so i am really lucky. I am due Sept 9th, but will be having 7 weeks off because of the summer holiday!!!!
