Mental health

I’m 20weeks pregnant and really struggling with my mental health at the moment. I work full as a manager as a homecare manager. Since finding out I was pregnant I’ve had 1 day off then 4days off 2 separate. And I want to take a week off self certify, I literally can’t take anymore. I know as a manager you can’t sack someone who is pregnant for the absences they have off. But I’m scared that if I go off with my mental health there going to sack me

You just want a week off? Do you have any annual leave? You don't have to tell them tbh. Just lie and say you have the flu. You can get doctors certificates online these days.

@Ella I would like more than a week off but I don’t get paid for it and with a baby on the way it’s not ideal.

Seek advice from pregnant then screwed website. They can't sack you.
