Maternity Leave finally here!!!

I have been in so much pain the last couple weeks due to my son head so low in my vagina lol he is ready to come out. I’m 2 cm dilated and 70% effaced. I have very rigorous work and on my feet all the time being a supervisor of 4 major departments in our Hospital that I’ll also be delivering at and I’m so excited. Today I said my farewell and I can’t explain it but I feel lighter and less stressed now that I don’t have to worry about stress from Work or baby coming while I’m working 😣 we’re in the home stretch now and all I can say is nesting has definitely kicked in. If you have the time and are able to go on maternity leave a week or two before baby arrives I believe you should take advantage and do it. Do what’s best for you and the baby and don’t allow anyone to shame you for doing just that!!!!
