Just wondering if anyone had any recommendations about when they took maternity leave with their second baby. I work Mon-Fri for four hour shifts so don't get much time with DD1 at the moment. She will be turning 3 end of March and baby is due end of April although I may be induced earlier. I was going to work up to 38/39 weeks but was thinking of taking time off to spend with DD1 before the new arrival. Has anyone else done this? I'm worried I'll regret missing the time at the end with both of them but it will be a big change for DD1 as she will be going from 5 days a week at nursery to just 2/3. Any recommendations would be great.
