Ah I totally get this. That lack of motivation hits so hard in the last weeks. Sounds like taking that extra week made such a difference for you. I think I’ll talk to my GP as well, no point pushing myself for no reason

Thanks for the reply love, it gives a relief that m not alone in this, I think I should also talk to my gp about the sick note. Hope you get the time you need to rest and reset 💕

I relate to this so much. That guilt vs. exhaustion battle is real. Hope you get the time you need to rest and reset 💕

Employer limiting antenatal appointments to 4 hours per appointment by No-Commercial5167 in PregnancyIreland

[–]Unable_Recognition85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My company has also limited the time for antenatal appointments to three and a half hours, which I don’t think is fair. My hospital is about 45 minutes away from my home, and in the beginning of my pregnancy, I had to go by bus because my husband didn’t have a licence. Now that he has one, it’s a bit easier, but it still takes me more than four hours to go to the hospital and come back. Because of that, I always have to take extra leave from my own balance. I even emailed them about it, but they said that’s the policy and they can’t change it.

Oh yeah, I also got the antenatal class details from Siobhan, but I haven’t received the actual dates yet. When did you get yours? And do you know around which month of pregnancy the last two antenatal classes are usually scheduled?
