If you're thinking of starting a family (or adding an extra blessing!) your options are about to change when it comes to who takes time away from work to care for baby in the early days, weeks, months. The UK is about to catch up with many of our European neighbours by giving parents much more choice in the matter of maternity/paternity leave. This could be great news if Mummy is the chief income earner in the family and you're starting to think you may only be able to afford to take a couple of months off work.
