I am working all the way up to when she comes. I am 39 weeks now.....I was dialated at a 2 at 36 weeks and still no baby. I think that if I was to wait at home, I would go crazy. At least I have some distraction here.

I worked up until the day before I gave birth, I was at work all day on a Monday, got off work, had dinner, took a bath went to bed, and my water broke at 4am the next morning. Most people couldnt believe I was working the day before I gave birth :) I strongly suggest waiting until you give birth to take your maternity leave if you can, I only got 6wks and I just went back to work on Friday and it was sooo hard leaving her at the sitters. I cant imagine if I had taken my maternity leave early and only got 4wks with her or something! 6wks seemed like a short enough time!

I was planning on taking off 2 weeks before. I am a teacher and have enough substitute days to cover that. (and whatever i have left they make me use as part of my maternity leave). I just was curious what most women do- how much relaxing time is needed before. Thanks!

I am working up until I have my baby. Plus I work in a hospital so I will be right there anyways. I don`t want to miss out on my year of maternity leave waiting to give birth.

I am going to have to work until its ime b/c i haven`t been at my job but 7 months and so I don`t qualify for fmla.

was planning on taking work off 3-4 weeks, but am already resting b/c of pressure and baby being so big.
