I ended up working til 4 days before I had my son, but he was 2 days late. I didn't want to waste my maternity leave sitting around. I'm a barista, so I know how being on your feet for 8 hours can take its toll. Take it easy and don't push yourself!
@Rozalynnsmommy, I'm doing the same thing. The longer I hold out before leaving, the more time I have with my little one! And also, if I time it out right, I won't have to go back to work until after Christmas. (Purely selfish on my part)
So I'm going down with the ship.
Ill be 37 weeks tomorrow and im not going on maternity leave till she comes i want all my time home spent with her.
