Hi everyone - hoping to get some advice as I genuinely don't know what to do - I'm 23 weeks pregnant
I've been working from home for the last month (advised by GP) as my commute is 4.5 hours round trip and I'm not sleeping at all due to chronic hip pain (I have hip problems anyway - need replacements in a few years but pregnancy has made pain much worse at night)
I just couldn't cope with getting up at 6am and not getting home til gone 7pm and was falling asleep at my desk
But working from home has been much better as I can get up later/go to bed earlier
My last day in the office before mat leave is 15th May and my work have said that they need me to be in the office and they don't want me working from home long term
This is in response to me asking if I can try working from home alternate days until my last day in the office (my manager travels a lot so I generally work from home twice a week anyway)
I really don't know what to do! Has anyone got any experience of this? I've tried to be helpful and work from home - the GP wanted to just sign me off sick - but work aren't helping me out at all so aren't giving me much of a choice!
Am so worried about it it's making me feel sick
