Hi all,
It's my first post on here as I'd like some advice if anyone knows the answer!
I'm currently 32+4 and have really struggled with my first pregnancy.
My first 16 weeks were awful with sickness and exhaustion, then things picked up. I've never felt like myself during pregnancy and at 25 weeks I was diagnosed with PND and was signed off until 29 weeks.
I was paid full pay as it was a pregnancy related sickness, and have since started talking therapy which is helping loads.
In the last week my morning sickness has returned and the exhaustion is even worse than in the beginning. I'm struggling to sleep at night too so it all feels like it's getting the better off me.
I've been off work sick again for the last 2 days, but I feel extremely guilty for it. I know I need to listen to my body and take a break when I need it. My question is, if it's pregnancy related again can my work cut my pay? I know if it wasn't pregnancy related they would have when I was signed off.
I'm due to finish up just before 36 weeks so I'm on the countdown now, but I'm really worried that my SMP will be less if my pay is cut due to being off at the moment.
Any help would be great!
