When is a good time to go on mat leave.

Hi there, this question is mainly for those who reside in Ontario(Toronto precisely). I was wondering when is an appropriate time to go on mat leave? I’ve at this job for almost a month now and didn’t know I was pregnant when I started working. Now every morning feels like hell, this pregnancy symptoms and the lost of appetite doesn’t constantly drains me. I haven’t told my employer yet, but I’m not sure when I should tell them? Any advice? Like I don’t want to use my pregnancy as an excuse to either start my shift late or work less. But this is really har

( I’m open to other ppl opinion! Doesn’t have to be someone from Ontario.)

Ps: I’m a soon to be single mom and I don’t know how the benefits pay work, there’s so many to apply for and it’s confusing. If any of you have information regarding it, please let me know! Thank you.
