I have 35 days left, but whose counting!
I know we always post about how terrible our maternity leave policies are or the discomfort of pregnancy so on a much happier note how many days do you have left until you have some time off?

No idea. Whenever baby decides to get here, I’ll start maternity leave. Baby was due 3 days ago. (Though I’m considering having Friday be my last day even if baby isn’t here yet, I’m tired!)

Wow – I have 3 months left at my job! Last day is Nov 30th. I’ll miss it here but there are definitely things I won’t miss as well. Guess I’ll be taking on a whole new career once I’m at home. π

Those are actually working days, so it would be a lot longer if I counted every day until she is expected to be here π
@Marie901- I bet it’s less than 100 working days π
@Abbyful- Hope she makes her appearance soon.
Even if your leave seems far away just think in a short period of time, much less than a year, you will be out of work for a few months just to spend with your baby. I’ve never had months off from work before lol

38 working days, but I have two personal days left and plan on taking a few sickies, so maybe like 32/34. That’s if she comes on time as I plan on working until she is born!

221. I think I’m just bitter and don’t want to go to work today because my officemates are a hot mess and I was out yesterday, so I’m afraid to see what I’m walking into this morning…lol. Count them down!!!

TOO MANY.
Oh wait, this is supposed to be positive… π Well, I currently work 4 days a week (40 hrs), so with just counting the actual days I work and considering holidays, it looks like 56 more work days before my due date… that’s not too bad!
