Wondering if someone had any advice on when?s best to start maternity leave ? 1/2/3 weeks or a month before baby?s due date?? This is my first baby and hoping I can go on all the way up until end of August with baby due very beginning of September. I work in an office job, 9-6pm, 5 days a week and travel an hour each way via London?s tube network. I?ve told my boss I plan for my last day to be the same week as baby due date but some friends have said I?m crazy to leave it so long. Maybe I should start mat leave earlier? Maybe I will be too big/ too tired to work? The commute daunts me the most to be honest!
What did you do or are planning to do? Your advice/ suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
