Taking holidays from work

[Flame]

As i have all 26 days left and i am entitled to take them before my maternity leave starts on the 22nd April i am wondering whether to take all 4 weeks in one go before my maternity leave which will mean finishing on the 14th March or whether to have alternate weeks off starting from now?

Not sure which would be best.

All 26 days in one go = Lots of time off to relax and go to possible antinatal classes, but the rest of the time sitting around doing nothing.

Alternate weeks = Not sitting around for weeks doing nothing but waiting, but not being able to go to antinatal classes till maternity leave starts.

What do you ladies think i should do?

i would take the whole 26 days off....when your not at classes you could be relaxing and watching day time tv

I would take it from March in one go to star my mat leave sooner

 

[Urchin]

Can you not save it till after yout Mat leave is up?
If not I'd take it all in one go TBH, that was there's no confusion about when you are working or off. Put your feet up and do relaxing things!

I could save it all up and they would give me a lump sum of money for it, but to be honest i would rather take it off as its less time here.

My oh and mum think i should do alternate weeks so i am not just sat around doing nothing for weeks before my boy comes but i dont know, I am really poo at making decisions
