I am at 29 weeks, but my office is still assigning me new work to take charge of. Is it common?

Question

I feel like they are neglecting the fact that I am going maternity leave soon and just loading me with responsibilities. Should I be concerned? I dont have to respond during maternity leave right? #stressed

I feel the same too, they are putting more on my plate because I'm the only one who can complete the tasks fast and efficiently (what my boss said). My mindset is baby is my priority now. It's not easy especially if you're Type A personality and want to achieve before going out on leave. Refocus on yourself. You will still get paid eventually and work will still be there. Do what you can and keep your sights on yourself happy and healthy. All the best Mummy 👍
