I worked till one week before my delivery .

They say to fill out ur papers by 36 weeks and send them in.. I worked until 37 and where I am u get 4 weeks before if u choose so at 36 weeks and 6 weeks after if u deliver vaginally and 8 weeks c section.. The longer u wait the longer it takes to get ur money

I'm working until delivery.. Any time I take off isn't paid and I can't afford that. I've done that with all of my pregnancies. I'm also a firm believer the more active you stay the quicker labor comes, unless there is a medical reason to be off work.
