Hi! So I have a high risk pregnancy, I am working full time and was planning on working up to 32ish weeks which would take me to around the start of June, just wondering how long any other high risk mums worked to and when to hand in my MATB1 form, completely clueless too all of this 🙈

I’m also high risk, I’m currently 30 weeks, plan was to have 2 weeks of annual leave from 36 weeks, go on my mat leave for 9 months (39 weeks which I am entitled to as only started with company in October so won’t be on statutory maternity leave) and use remaining of my annual leave at the end of my mat leave. I gave my matb1 form to my boss the same day I received it at 25 week midwife appointment x

Also high risk and going off at 38 + 3 weeks but only because I've been working from home since 17 weeks which makes it easier (although I am struggling now at 35 weeks!). I think if I was having to go into the office every day, I would have chosen to go off a lot earlier! It just so happens that baby is likely to be hear in the next 2 weeks so my mat leave will just start earlier if necessary x
