Becoming a mom is more than rewarding, especially if you’re awaiting your baby to arrive. You may be counting down the days, hours, and minutes until you’re able to meet the new member of your family. While stocking up on newborn baby clothes and celebrating with your loved ones can be thrilling, planning for your time to rest may be a stressor. Thinking about getting back to work and actually taking the maternity leave that you need may be too much to handle.

This may be more of a top of concern if you’re hard at work, or a main financial supporter of your family. This is where planning and prepping for your maternity leave can be crucial to you and your baby’s health.
