You know, sammy, we are getting higher and higher up that list.

When are you going on maternity leave, or does the contract run out first??

I know!! Scary how fast it moves!

I'm planning on finishing work the last week of Feb, which gives me about 3 weeks til EDD. We agreed a fixed term contract which ends on the same date, and then when/if I'm ready to return in the future - if there's a job, great - if not, hey ho. I know this situation wouldn't work for everyone, but for my part I don't feel pressurised into going back, and for their part, they don't feel pressurised in keeping a job open for me in this current climate. They really did me a favour by giving me a job as it wasn't a vacancy they had open. It gets me out of the house a couple of days a week, pays the mortgage and allows me to build up my weeks for my MA so I can contribute once bubs is here

What about you? When do you plan on going on ML?

Well in terms of pay, the same time as you, but really a week earlier (20th Feb) as it is half term first.

13 working weeks and two days...
