Do you get sick pay Kitkat if so get yourself signed off for a bit sounds like you need a break from it all :-)

Thanks Xmas, think I am just grumpy from being so tired!! I do get paid sick pay but the prob is my manager said if I go off sick they will start my maternity leave early, which would be worse atm.

Fuzz; I would also speak to a pharmacist, maybe try boots or somewhere and see what they advise. I know some of these medicines say to consult your doctor before use but a pharmacist should be able to help. I'm the same though, avoid the docs at every chance!!!!

Honey they CANNOT do that until you are 36 weeks pregnant and the illness is directly related to pregnancy so please don't let them bully you like that!!

Kitkat, also ask the CAB if your manager can force you to start maternity leave early. At my work if I go off work with a sickness relating to pregnancy 4 weeks before bubs is due then in automatically starts, but sounds early for you.

Fuzz - and anyone else who may be suffering with number 2 issues - moist toilet tissue is your new friend! Sounds weird and gross, but very comforting on a sore botty (sorry TMI)

:rotfl::rotfl:I know I should but I always feel like I'm wasting their time, especially if I already know whats causing it, then again, it's a free prescription............ok, TT you've persuaded me docs it is, besides it's an hour out of work if I can get an appointment at the right time:p:D
