No more work for me for 12 months! Today is the first day of my mat leave and I can't tell you how good it feels, I was really starting to feel the pressure of managing work/home/pregnancy etc. and I just feel like a huge weight has been lifted!

Yay!! :dance:
 
:cheer: It's a great feeling isn't it, I started my leave on 1st October & i'm loving having not to rush & get up to an alarm every morning.

I just keep cleaning though :lol: Should be relaxing but can't seem to sit with my feet up for more than 5 minutes!!

You'll be hooked to Jeremy Kyle before you know it!

Enjoy your leave. x
 
congrats hun its great :cheer: i officially start mine today but ive been off for 4 weeks on annual leave :D xxxxxxxx
 
I'm really looking forward to having some me time as I'm keeping DD in nursery (albeit for shorter days) till baby is born so I can potter round town and get baby stuff ready, like stuff for my hospital bag etc. No more rushing round trying to fit everything in - it's going to be heaven! :D


And I get to watch day-time tv - it'll be like being a student again ;)

i am sooooooo jelous i want to finish work :( i dont finish work until 37 weeks in 5 and a bit weeks time but i am sooo ready to finish now but the time goes quicker at work than at home though thank god. :D
 
i am the total opposite.... i have been on my maternity leave for 3 days now and i am bored stupid!!

I even asked them if I can work this week but HR declined it for health and safety or something....... just put a lorry warning noise for when i walk around..... GRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I worked as late as I possibly could.

Hate doing nothing.. people tell me to clean and nest .... GET LOST !!! I have to look after a whole other person after I push her out.

Certainly will not clean hahha
 
Well done you.. I have another 10 weeks to go... I wish I could go earlier but we are so stretched at work before the year end and I don't want to let the guys down...

Enjoy it hun :hug:
