    Any of you have a template for a letter to your employer confirming birth of a child? I really should have sent something ages ago, but I forgot !

    Mine took a panicky phone call and a txt as confirmation! :D

    Mine asked for an "amended MatB1" but I haven't done anything about it. It can't be "amended" if they still have the orginal - they probably mean a reissued one, but you don't get a reissued one so I'm not doing anything. I think it's because the MatB1 says "I am due on.." or "I had a baby on.." but the second is only for cases where you didn't know you were preg or if you had the baby really early before you'd got your MatB1 (or if you had a slow midwife!).

    The date of birth doesn't matter for anything to do with your mat leave any more anyway. It used to be 26 weeks from the DOB but now it's 33 weeks from the day you started your mat leave which was probably before the birth (or the day after in my case!).

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    How long were people registered with Bizziebaby before getting something to test?

    I had another nursing bra from emmajayne when I got back from holiday (sent the questionnaires back just before we went) which makes three in total :D (although one I'm not wearing anymore now I've finished testing it because it's underwired and I don't like underwired bras).
