Question regarding maternity leave...

Has anyone started their leave a week early? I am seriously thinking about doing that because it has gotten to a point where I just can't take it anymore.

I started my maternity leave 2 weeks before my due date. I worked in the city and my doctor made me stop at 38 weeks because of the commute.

I'm hoping to work up to the end, but if I start getting uncomfortable, then I might start using my vacation/sick time.

I started my maternity leave today - I was due on Monday. I wanted to go as long as possible before the baby came but at this point I am tired and swollen and just can't do it anymore. I was informed by my disability carrier that you can start leave up to 2 weeks before your due date. That could just be my policy though.

Im actually going out at 25 weeks, doctors orders. It is a little earlier than I would of liked but when I heard about all the risk of PTL, it makes sense.
