My workplace were very unhelpful last year as after I suffered a miscarriage with my first pregnancy I was told to sort it out and get back to work ASAP. I then fell pregnant again and Unfortunately was in and out of hospital during the pregnancy. I am now off on maternity and have a perfect dc :) I had a meeting a couple of weeks ago and was told they were restructuring meaning I had no choice but to take a slightly different role on my return or given my new circumstances I may wish to consider resigning my post. It would also mean that there would be another manager above my managerial position. I have been told I couldn't go for the new role because of my sickness absence and it was implied my age. I have been praised a lot during my career for the work I have done so this upset me. I have since found out someone that is in my team will be likely to become my manager.... There is more to this story but don't want to be recognised. Anyway myself and my husband had been considering having another child, but before the meeting I felt a duty to return to work for a while before trying as I didn't/don't want to let anyone down. ( I have unloved 3 days off ill in my whole career before becoming pregnant) Now I'm just thinking that waiting is silly (especially as if an illness returns children will be out of the question) would ibu to go back to work pregnant then go in maternity leave soon after which would entitle me to full maternity pay again (if I am lucky enough to become pregnant again).
