When did you finish work before birth/leave? What did/do you do?
When did you finish work before birth/leave? What did/do you do?
My goal is to make it to 37 weeks because I’m addicted to work (for now😅) and that’s the last important event before my due date. I work retail and am on my feet all day, this is my first baby and no one thinks I’m going to be able to make it that far.
I know it’s not up to me. But is that too far of a stretch? Everyone is different but I don’t know if there are any common denominators 🤔😅😭. The staff is betting on me having my baby at the store 😂. As long as I can still put my pants on I plan to go to work.

Not at all. I worked right up until my due date. 37 weeks is totally obtainable. Just get comfortable shots and pants towards the end and you'll be fine

I worked up to a week before I was due. I had put in vacation time to do so. If I didnt, I would have worked all the way up until I was due.

I worked up until 37 with my first pregnancy (retail as well). I went into labor the day that was supposed to be my last day. I would have worked until the end but I had 3 weeks left in the semester and wanted to focus on school.

I was an administrative assistant with all three of my boys. With our first son I worked Friday, my water broke Saturday, and he was born Sunday. With our second son I worked Monday and has him Tuesday. With our third son I had changed to a part-time position so I worked the Wednesday before having him on Friday.

I also work retail. Minimum 9 hour days before lunch and I don’t get to sit down at all while clocked in. I’m due June 2nd but I told them I was taking my leave as of the second week of May, so 35ish weeks

I finished on Friday and was scheduled to come in to the hospital for my induction on Sunday night.
BUT I do most of my work from home. That’s also why I went back to work when the baby turned 4 weeks - I get to be a stay-at-home working mom 🙂

This gives me hope Atleast 😇😇. My GM now pretty much keeps me trapped in the office so I’m not doing as much as I used to- or want to. I figure if I take it easy I should be okay. 4.5 weeks is all I’m asking. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
