Hey girls

Just back from being in hospital from ruling out a suspected lung clot but all is ok, its just a chronic chest infection thank God!

Anyways, enough is enough and after being signed of yet again for a week I've called HR and I'm bringing my leave forward by 3 wks. I need to concentrate on me now and stopping work will help heaps I'm sure. That place has stressed me out so much which is half my problem. Omg I just feel so relieved already! So, bring on Sept 19! It gives me just under 2 months to enjoy my peace and quiet lol

Hope everyone is ok.

P.S. When do BH's start? Now and again my tum goes hard in the middle and side and a lil painful then relaxes

Love Sharon and 29 + 1 blue (very active) bump

Good for you in bringing your leave forward. It will be good for you to rest up and concentrate on you and the bubba instead of worrying about work. My work stressed me out too, I hated it in the end and have no intention of going back there at the end of my years' mat leave! They don't even know I've had the baby yet!

Sorry to hear you've been in hospital though, you poor thing. Any chance of being signed off for the remaining two weeks' of work?

There was three of us at work who were all pregnant at the same time (and another girl who found out she was expecting as I was leaving!), and we used to count down the days until our mat leave started - like the light at the end of the tunnel!

My BH's started around 32/33 wks, only soft ones at first with slight hardening of my bump and then around 37wks they started to get a bit "ouch!".

Take it easy and get yourself better ready for your leave!

It's like being on the dole, but with more money to spend he he.

When my leave finished earlier this year after having Charlie I was on payroll for 12 weeks then off again to have Francis but I was only at my desk for 15 days as had loads of annual leave and stuff.

My work must hate me

You can get BH's much earlier than this as well, spesh if you've had a few babes you recognise them. I had none at all with baby 4 and millions with baby 5 by which point I was moaning 'what do I need practice contractions for'

Enjoy your leave. Jeremy Kyle awaits
