I requested for 2 weeks of HL prior to EDD. In the end I only used 1 week before I popped! Speak to your gynae about your symptoms. I couldnt walk up stairs n had leg swelling. They can be sympathetic:)
I also asked when i was 36 weeks my gynae told me its too early. Til my endocrinologist gave me to monitor my sugar as i was having GDM. Then my gybae gave me one week HL when i was 37 weeks.
I took during week 33.. some gynae wont give unless u have health issues..
My gynae Dr Lee Jiah Min. Bt some backgrd info, i have high risk for pre eclampsia and high bp so it was easier i guess getting HL 🤷🏻♀️
For my gynae, no HL to be given. Only mc issued for medical appointment.
Maternity leave is already entitled to us. Gynae at most only issue a form or letter stating the period of maternity leave we are taking. This letter or form is for company hr record purpose once we return to work.
