re: when to take maternity leave

Maybe that's what i should do. Put her in a couple days a week so she still is interacting with other children. Not cocompletely taking her away from something she is so used to

Quoting Danika + mommy + peanut:" So i am deciding when to take maternity leave. I think right up until i can't anymore but SO is saying ... [snip!] ... year old before baby comes? Or try to stay at work. Ps. Money is not an issue. I don't have to be working i just wanted to  "

id prob take it about a month before. If your able to.

Yeah you could definitely think about it. Itll give u a litle more time to bond with the baby when u have it too so that u dont feel like ur spread so thin between the two.

I didn't have a choice when I had to leave (medical reasons, full bed rest at 29 weeks) but if I had I woulda waited a lot longer. I really wanted to work until my LO came because I have gone stir crazy counting the days until she gets here. Plus our money situation isn't the best. But since you have a year, money isn't an issue, and you have another LO I don't blame ya at all!
