Hi, I have a question that is a bit unusual, I hope someone can help me with this. I had 2 miscarriages in the last six months. Whith my first pregnancy I told everyone straight away as I was so excited, anyway, it ended at 8 weeks as missed miscarriage and I had surgery to remove the pregnancy. I had about ten days off work all together, including all appointments, I was suprised when I got paid that month as they paid me for all those days when I was off. When I was pregnant again I didn't tell anyone but my boss, and that pregnancy ended more or less like the first one. This time I didn't get paid for any of the days when I was at hospital, they even reduced my wage for the single hours when I had to leave early to see doctor etc. I'm confused, is there a law that explains if a woman has a miscarriage should she still get paid for time off work? Like when you are pregnant? Now I am 7 weeks pregnant and just about to go for a scan, I am so scared and nervous! Thanks to anyone who replies
