I have a job which I mainly enjoy (but recently has really ground me down) but only 20% is what I love. I have an opportunity to go freelance and do 100% what I love. I was pregnant and would have been leaving my job anyway with intention of freelancing while kids are small. Unfortunately I miscarried. I am hoping to get pregnant again within the year but if I get pregnant while freelance I only get MA and not Maternity benefits of my salary. That said (MA and SMP are the same and I think I would only claim that as I wouldn't go back to work anyway) Just very worried though as if I quit and then have a terrible pregnancy with lots of sickness then I will have no income (although I do have a house deposit in savings we could dip into).
My period is due 3 days before the final notice deadline (and there have been some positive signs I may have caught again) although they would like me to hand my notice in earlier so they can plan for next year. Even if I am pregnant again I am not sure I would stay and anyway sods law would dictate that I won't get pregnant until after I have handed in my notice.
Nargh am all a befuddle on this one but 95% decided I want to leave.
