Boss expects me to read emails during maternity. Is this normal? FTM here

Hi Mummies i am going on ML during week 38 and my boss told me 2days before my ML that he wants to have a handover call on the day my ML starts?! He also said if there are emails that need my help he might ask me during ML. I have been very nice n considerate to only take ML for 2.5mths and stagger the remaining 1.5mths in future. I have already emailed my handover and everything and told him wk38 onwards i might be in labour/on bed rest/ not available. He replied by saying "by ur edd is later right?" #firsttimemom

You should tell him off though. ML is a preparation time for your little one and yourself as well as getting rest. He cannot force you to do so unless you do it willingly.

Nope they are to follow the rules of what they have given you. They dont ask you to do email/work unless you do it willingly or come to work and settle. But that said if you didnt go ML.
