Applying for jobs while on maternity

[Firesidetreats1]

Does anyone have any experience of not returning to there current job and applying for new jobs while on maternity? If so how have you found it?

I did it and it was fine. Just applied for jobs and told them the date I was available. Got offered two, didn't get offered several others, no idea whether my maternity leave status was relevant. Gave notice to my current employer in the usual manner.
