i’m sure you can, you should be able to request a copy of your employee handbook to make sure too

the only thing i’d watch out for is that if your employer pays you the maternity pay but have enhanced it to more than the statutory amount then some employers require you to go back for a certain amount of time otherwise they will request the extra money back

but if you claim maternity allowance or you only get the statutory maternity pay then you won’t have that problem

i’d try request the employee handbook and have a read through it so you can find all the info just to be sure x

Did you pay for any private maternity or postnatal services outside the NHS?

I'm thinking of hiring a postnatal midwife for at-home visits and possibly one for the birth, but I'm concerned about the cost. Did you choose to pay for any extra support outside the NHS, and was it worth it for you?

I will also be paying for a NIPT and 3rd trimester scan, costs are adding up.

Missing my partner even though he’s right there 🥹

Has anyone else felt like this?
He has 4 weeks off work with me and baby, we’re just over half way through and have spent all our time together so far and I still have this feeling of missing him.
Baby is breastfed and is cluster feeding at the minute, we love our little boy so much but I feel a little stuck under him at times.
My partner and I are over 3 years in and have always been obsessed with eachother, baby was planned and is so loved but it’s a big adjustment isn’t it 🥹🩵

What do you spend on food a month!? Family of 3

Hello, me and my partner are spending a lot on our food shop considering we use a lot of beans and pulses over fresh meat and cook from scratch to keep the cost down. But we are still spending so much and we can't figure out why it's such a high cost still. We are a family of 3.

Frustrated

I truly see now why people get divorced after having a baby. I wish guys knew and understood what we got through physically, mentally and emotionally to bring a human into this world and then having to deal with a newborn
