Maternity pay
I'm just trying to work out my finances for the next year (because we've stupidly just started moving house!). I'm not sure if I've imagined this but I seem to remember with my previous baby, my employer split my total pay equally over the 9 months. Basically rather than starting off on full pay and then gradually dropping down, they calculated what my total pay would have been over the 9 months, and then split it evenly so I got a consistent amount each month.
Does anyone know if that's a thing or have I dreamed it? Has anyone asked their employer for something similar?

Depends on your companies policies but it’s worth asking your employer if they will do it for you
I think some do this. My employer did 3 months full pay and the 6 months half pay and that’s how it’s been broken down. Worth asking!

You haven’t imagined it! Yes some employers will do this but this is down to them, you’ll have to request it. It’s not very common now x
