That’s a dumb policy. I ended up with pregnancy complications and had an emergency delivery at 35 weeks. Whoever designed the policy has clearly never been pregnant. Rant over, lol.
Doesn’t it matter more what annually your hours are averaging? My first mat leave I think I billed like 80 hours my final month (and no I didn’t hit target by far but still had decent hours). Why would the firm care about a few slow months if otherwise hours are fine?
Are you on track based on your prorated billable hours? Generally I wouldn’t worry too much about it, but perhaps ask a trusted mentor about it. I would honestly just enjoy the slow time while you have it! It’s one less thing to stress over as you’re getting ready to have a baby!
