Had quite a bit of time off work - pregnancy related

[Leanne17]

Hi I'm 14 weeks pregnant and I've had quite a bit of time off work during this pregnancy and I'm getting nervous regards to my job.

I had a week off in the beginning due to antenatal depression

A week off due to a bleed/ threatened miscarriage

and a few odd Saturdays one again was for a bleed and another due to quite bad back pain the others tied in with my weeks off.

It's not what I would of wanted but it can't be helped. My worst pregnancy to date!

Where do I stand with work can I be fired?

Xx

Hi Leanne!
Do your work know you are pregnant? If they do, none of this time off will go against you as pregnancy related illness doesn't count against your general sick leave. Hope that helps :)

Hi :)

They do yes I've had risk assessment etc with them. Thankyou, I'm a nightmare worrier and wouldn't usually have so much time off xx
