I guess I'm grateful to live in Ontario its 16 weeks paid mat leave and the rest is paid parental leave ,so either mom or dad can take it but I will deffiently be taking all 52 weeks
I wish I could afford to take off. I'm the money maker lol
Took mine at 35.5 weeks. No paid maternity at all for me.
52 weeks paid!!!? My lord! Count your blessings! I live in Colorado
Im planning on finishing at 37 weeks too i was going to try and work till the end but im feeling it now its hard work and more tiring not just that we need alil rest before baby comes
I was going to work up until 38 weeks, but at 36 I got extremely sick and couldn't go back into work for a few days anyways and they told me to just take it early and rest, which I totally needed! I kept getting sick and was pushing myself too much. I'm 37 weeks now and been laid out with laryngitis, sinus infection, and pink eye for the past 4 days. I'm taking 10-12 weeks maternity leave, all unpaid.
And I have 52 weeks paid mat leave , where are you from?
I worked up until 38.5 weeks pregnant :)
