With bub #1 I took maternity leave (well actually resigned because I was not eligible) at 36wks (BTW I had 3days off and bubba was born :-( not much of a rest) I had to tell them 10wks before I intended leaving and by the time I was 34wks I was completely OVER working and couldn't wait to leave just so tired and huge.

With this bubba we had some complications early on which coincided with my hubby's transfer so I had to leave work at 16wks. I am currently doing relief work (I'm a teacher) 1-2 days a week and loving it!
