I'm a regular lurker, occasional poster. NC for this reason.
I am nearly 28 weeks pregnant, leaving work in two weeks.
My work have been utterly horrible during my pregnancy, and I do mean REALLY horrible.
Nasty comments regarding my rights to be pregnant, wanting to get rid of me but legally can't. Have put me in a few dangerous situations. Infectious diseases, child related etc etc etc etc.
Unfortunately due to be nature of my job, I don't wish to disclose this as could out me, means that no HR department or real support at all has left me suffering since I announced my pregnancy at 13 weeks.
I'll get back to the purpose of my post today, I am in pain with my back, hips, legs. I have been under real stress with work and I'm so anxious about going to work every single day. I don't think my husband or family can really relate to or understand the awful nature of the atmosphere at work.
Wibu to see if the midwife feels it's a good idea to be signed off sick till my maternity leave starts in two weeks or am I being a big big baby and just need to get on with it?
I just feel completely depleted. I can't take the horrible atmosphere anymore, as well as lifting, and lots of walking when I'm pain with hips.
I would love to hear people's opinions, I think I just feel like a big skiver if I ask thanks all.
