Hey all,

I have what I assume is probably a really dumb question and I have just written it wrong somehow but I am due to start Maternity leave on 14/5/23. I plan to take 39 weeks off (( months)- Am I right in saying I am due back to work on the 12/2/2024 or is it earlier?

When I looked at online calculator it had said 2/1/24?

I feel like I am being really silly 😳

12th Feb looks right to me.

12th Feb is 39 weeks 1 day. What calculator were you looking at?

If in doubt, check with your HR person.
