10 days before my due date [provided I can]. I had my first child 8 days before my due date and within 4 hours, so I am already risking working up until I give birth...so I'm almost hoping to go the full 40 weeks so I can rest for a week!

Re: Working until when ?

My OB wanted to pull me out of work at 34wks because I was commuting to the city, had a lot of fluid and a few other reasons. I stuck it out until 36 wks and then had had enough. I had DD at 39 wks. I didnt like being home 'wasting' my maternity leave, but I needed to come out of work.

My OB was great and told me when ever I was ready, she's give me the doctors note and pull me out. At 20 wks I joked and told her 'im ready now" but really, Im glad I stayed in until 36 wks and if I was working on LI and not commuting I would have stayed longer.

Because my job requires me to bend,lift,reach and be on my feet for 8+ hrs. I am just playing it by ear. I think that I will work up until a month before my due date, but if I feel good it could be longer.

I'm not sure yet.

I'm a teacher and last time I was due on Labor Day, so I got out at 30 weeks in June which was nice!

This time, I am not returning to work and Easter vacation/end of 3rd quarter is at my 36th week, so I'm thinking of ending it then.

Not really sure. I work on my feet for 12 hour shifts and my dr. already had me cut back. I have been working 8 hr shifts but I am on my feet the whole time, walking a lot, lifting, bending etc. I feel OK after work, with no swelling or anything but I get bad cramping in my stomach after work so the dr. wants to be careful. So I am not sure how long I'll be able to work but I am going to try as long as I can! I work in a hospital so I can always go up to L&D if nedded....except that is not where I plan on delivering.

Re: Working until when ?

I'm going to try to work as long as I can, however, I have an hour + drive in to work & not sure I'll be able to take a hot school/classroom in June, we'll see. I have basically unlimited (32) days.
