I’m due in September went out in the beginning of July couldn’t take all the weight the baby was putting on my back on legs

I was going to try working up until 37 weeks but i go to the doctors Friday and i think I’m going to ask her about going on leave soon. I just can’t handle the exhaustion and pain anymore

I worked up until birth and went back a week later. They let me bring him to work

I work at a summer camp & it’s over in 2 weeks; I’ll be 38weeks... trying to stick it out although I’m on my feet all day in the heat with the youngest kids at camp lol

I would have worked through to about 37 weeks but things didn’t go as planned and I physically couldn’t

I was trying to stay at work until I go into labor (desk job, no public interaction) but I'm in so much pain and emotional misery at 38+5 that I'm considering making tomorrow my last day. It's just really hard to gamble with leave/vacation time- I'm like "do I REALLY need to stay home now??"

@aengs2, I stopped at 5 months with my last 2 pregnancies because I was high risk.

Depends on your job and if you're high risk. I worked up until I went into labor at work at 39 weeks 4 days.

I stopped at 37 weeks because I was put on bedrest.

I worked up until the day I had my 1st and am planning on doing the same now with my 2nd.

I worked until I couldn’t efficiently do my job any longer lol it was 2.5 weeks before baby came

Today was my last day but I used pto cuz I woke up feeling terrible today

I worked up until I gave birth lol

Usually around 7 or 8 months. But some work throughout the entire pregnancy.
