When will you start your maternity leave?

Question

Answer

In the Netherlands you’re not allowed to work passed 36 weeks. Could take my mat leave earlier but then I will have less time afterwards.

Answer

I’m a stay at home mom this time. But when I had my daughter, I left work early for my 38 week appt and was induced that day so I worked every day until she was born (kinda. Was in labor for 24 1/2 hours)

Answer

With my other kids I have went on leave around 35 weeks. With this one I work from home and have a desk job so I planned to work until i have the baby.

Answer

Stay at home mom so I’ll likely still be “working” while I’m in labor. 😂😂😂 But in all seriousness, with my daughter I worked until I went into labor.

Answer

I’ve been on leave for 14 months and will be for about 5 months after baby is born

Answer

With my first I worked till my last day. Water broke on april 29th and my daughter born on April 30th :)

Answer

I worked up to 38 weeks then baby came 3 days later. Whilst the extra time with baby is great I kind of feel like I missed that nesting period time and a bit of final me time to chill so this time I’m finishing at 36 weeks

Answer

With my first I worked till 38 weeks and gave birth at 40+3. I wasn't planning on stopping but sitting at work I was so uncomfortable! I work from home now in the evenings so I'll probably stop around 38 weeks. (I'm quitting completely after mat leave so they are hiring someone new.)
