    Wow... lots of teachers and health care workers here!

    I do voice overs for a living, very fortunate to have flexible hours as it's freelance but I work through an agent so I just let them know how much work I am willing to accept and when.

    I have worked right up to delivery for first 2 preg, again will do so this time, albeit in a reduced capacity, and with someone driving me around for a bit in the last week or two as I just get too tired.

    I don't have maternity leave as I'm self employed.

    I go back to work after about 3 weeks at home; at first it's only an hour or two on say two days a week, and I increase the volume of work by a couple of hours each week. Still I don't work as hard as usual as I breastfeed and make time to come home or only work a short while between feeds.

    My hubby is the kids' main carer and will have 2 years off on paternity leave.
