Is 36 weeks too early to go on maternity leave?

No. And I highly recommend going on leave then, unless you are one of the few lucky ones who just feel great at the end. :) I’ve done it both ways and say definitely 36. My water broke at 39 so I only really had 3 weeks, but it was perfect.

I went on maternity leave at 35 weeks, I had two hour commute both ways... so I couldn’t handle it anymore! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Nope I've seen workers leave sooner

Not at all !!!

i went at 34 weeks. it was dr order, but my original plan was 37. i don’t think it’s too early!

No not at all !

It depends on how your feeling and if you’re working how long will you be approved to be off??

If you think you can wait another two weeks; I’ll say wait another two weeks because that time goes by so quickly
