 When will you stop working? 
I have a meeting on Monday morning to determine my maternity leave dates.  I'm not sure how long I should keep working.  I can start my leave up to 30 days before my due date, then I get 30 days after the baby is born before my 12 week FMLA starts.  All of this is unpaid of course, except for whaterver accumulated sick days I have.  I work in  a school so I'll get the summer off and won't have to go back until September.  How soon before your due date are you going to stop working?

  Me, too. Conveniently, my edd is on the last day of school. I'm not planning to take any time off from work. I don't care if I pop in the middle of class

 Re: When will you stop working? 
HI I am also a teacher in the dreaded Hempstead.  Anyway they are not great about Mat leave so I will work as long as I can,  I have 41 days in my back.  this will take me to the 8 weeks given for a c-section.  I then will take off a few weeks past unpaid.  I am due Feb.  22 and will return in May.  - shari

 Re: When will you stop working? 
I want to stop now!  But in actuality I'll work up to my due date 1/26, if everything is okay.
