With how our holiday year runs at work, I'm going to start mat leave from 1st march, but with holiday I'm owed I will be finishing up at 32weeks.
This is my first and somewhere before due date I've got to move to my boyfriends family home (moving from Birmingham to Stratford upon Avon - I am moving in with him, his mum and sister and brother as we are saving for a deposit for a house).
Do you think it's too soon to go on mat leave? I plan to have 9 months off and the 10th month off will be using all the holiday I've accrued whilst on the leave. If I leave later i.e. march then I will have to return to work during December and those of you who work/have worked in retail can probably appreciate I would love 1 Christmas off!!!!
Plus my job is as a manager/makeup artist for a makeup brand in a well known dept store so I'm literally on my feet all day!!!
So too early or not? Sorry for long post!!!
