So I work in a high physical activity job where I'm on my feet 99% of the day. I work per diem (meaning no work =no pay that day/week,etc). I'm not scheduled to go on mat leave until Oct 5th (only 5 Days from my DD ) and I'd have to come back Jan 5th (so I get 3 months).
I've been lucky so far working with*mostly* understanding people who know my limits. I have major SPD, walking hurts to the point I want to cry and I'm getting more swollen every day. I've already cut down my hours by halfish, but even most days are a struggle to get up and move.
If I start my leave early I run the risk of losing time (and money) with baby girl once she does arrive. What would you girls do? Take an early leave due to the pain and miss out on 1 holiday or stick it out the last 3 weeks?
