British Citizenship if Special circumstances of long absence

Hi,
I was wondering if you could share how long did your British Citizenship application took until you received the approved letter from the HO if you had a special circumstance on your application e.g. You spent more than 90 days outside the UK in the last 12 months because you were on maternity leave.
Many thanks in advance
Kind regards

Maternity is not usually considered 'special circumstances'.

How many days were you absent in the 12 months immediately before date of online application??

I was absent for 120 days from April til August 2018. I applied in January 2019.
