Last week I went back to work following a week off with terrible back and leg ache and I managed to bring my maternity leave forward. I now finish this Friday instead of 17th May but I'm having anxiety about it! I'm worried I'm leaving work in the lurch (even though I'm determined to make sure EVERYTHING is nicely organised before I go) and I'm panicking about money. My lovely boyfriend keeps telling me it will be fine and not to worry but I can't help it. I'm on a fixed contract so I'll be on Maternity Allowance so it's a significant dip in income anyway but the panic is setting in. I know I'm stopping work for the right reason, the insides of my legs are SO painful (has anyone had this before btw??) and even getting out of bed is a struggle let alone getting myself ready, driving to work and sitting at my uncomfortable desk all day.
Just realised how moany I sound, sorry! I guess I'm just looking for reassurance that I'm doing the right thing and it will all be ok!
