At which point is everyone planning on starting their maternity? I’m trying to decide at the moment! Ideally I want as much time off with the baby as I can but I’m exhausted already and I’m only 19 weeks! I work with young children with autism and/or special needs so at times the job can be quite draining! This is my second so when I get home I’ve got my son to look after too and it’s just wiping me out!
