I know this is probably a stupid question but when I was reading about maternity leave/pay it said that maternity pay is paid for up to 39 weeks but I was planning on taking the full 52 weeks of maternity leave, so does this mean that once you get to 39 weeks of maternity leave you stop getting any money even though your technically still employed (I definitely plan to go back to work after the 52 weeks of leave) I just find the whole Maternity leave/pay thing confusing and this is my first baby so dont know how things work cos my employers are quite useless at getting back to me/clarifying things.
