when did you ladies take maternity leave? I work in a restaurant and constantly standing on my feet on concrete. I'm currently 33 weeks pregnant now wondering if I should try and stick it out?
I took my leave at 36 weeks. I could have kept working but I was soooo over it. I was on my feet all day outside walking 10+ miles (just at work) and carrying heavy stuff. Honestly I say take it when you want, not when someone tells you to.
I started my leave five days before my scheduled c section and with my first, I worked up until I had the baby; however, I was never a server and not on my feet often at all.
haha all people do is give me dirty looks to be honest not so many nice people around these days
It's up to you as long as your body can handle it... So it's on you, go when you can't take it anymore
