Just planned my maternity leave!

I'm so excited. I'm using 17 annual leave days, then a year's maternity leave (the last 13 weeks are unpaid) then I'll add some of my accrued annual leave days onto the end.

So I start maternity leave on 6th September at 33 weeks pregnant, and I don't have to return to work until October 2020, but it will be more like Nov 2020 due to the holidays and a phased return. I'll return in October with 33 days holiday to use before April.

Woo! Counting down the weeks now.
