After a really horrible few days, I don't seem to be feeling any better.
I was told this morning that I may not have a job anymore, on top of everything else that has happened. They are going to have to lay me off because I work as a dental nurse, and we all have to be registered and they cannot find a course to put me on (waiting lists too long) so they are going to have to let me go if I can't find one myself ASAP, which I can't.
The only thing that was keeping positive was to try for another baby soon, but if I either don't have a job, or I've only just started a new job (I'm already applying for new positions) then we won't be able to ttc. I think you have to be somewhere for 6 months before they'll even let you have maternity leave won't they? I'm confused as to how all this maternity leave works. If I wasn't entitled to it, would I get similar maternity benefits from the government? Is there anybody reading this who has fallen pregnant whilst out of work and coped financially?
I really need to see a light at the end of this awfully long tunnel
