I just want to relax! Work-related...how much time do you have left before leave?????
I feel like with 38 days to go, anything can happen. What if I go into labor in 10? I want to be out of work already so I can be well-rested for this little girl!
Who is with me here? How much longer do you have at work?

Re: I just want to relax! Work-related...how much time do you have left before leave?????
As you know, I plan on waiting till the end. I can't see myself waiting around at home for a week wasting sick time.  I'm not really the "relaxing" type. DH is pushing me to take next Friday 4/30 as my last day. Still not sure what I'm going to do!

I know I am much earlier and anything can happen but I am the same way. I hope to work until the bitter end. My tentative last day is my due date BUT if I wake up the next Monday and feel okay and am not in labor LOL I will take it on a day by day basis.

Another reason I'm doing this is because I feel it will "go faster". If I'm sitting at home, I will be couuunntttinnngg the hours and days. If I'm at work, the days seem to fly by. KWIM?

I have 3.5 wks left and so much left to do at work! When I went out with DS, I continued to work from home even though I was on disability but this time, I'll be busy him. I'm so uncomfortable already that I'm not as productive as I'd like to be anymore.

Re: I just want to relax! Work-related...how much time do you have left before leave?????
With DD #1 I planned to work until the end. I had to stop a week before my due date because I kept getting sick in my office. Flu, colds, sinus infections ect. I went into labor three days before my due date and had her two days before, so it worked out well. owever, I have friends who were up to two weeks late. I would have hated wasting all that extra time.

Re: I just want to relax! Work-related...how much time do you have left before leave?????
My last day of work with my first pregnancy was my 39 week mark. I went into labor that night, on my last day of work!! I was pizzed cause I thought I'd get at least a few days to relax before DD came. She had other plans though! 
I'll be stopping work 3 weeks before my due date this time around. I'll be taking care of my year old DD so I'm sure I wont be relaxing all that much. lol

ITA!!!!!
I had to take off the last two weeks of 2009 because I had too many vacation days and they wouldn't let me carry over to January. Besides the actual holidays I WAS SO BORED! And I felt every little pregnancy ache and pain, even though I was still so early. Once I went back to work I didnt have time to dwell and I felt much better!

I'm leaving the first for a better opportunity.
I had been waiting for this for a while- and when I got preggo I thought I would have to put it on hold until after the baby came
However they are crazy enough to still want a pregnant woman who is going out on leave soon- so I figured although the timing is a bit rough, I better take it while i have the chance!!!

I have 9 weeks left until and I'm just so tired of commuting to work. I may telecommute the last week just to relax and prepare myself. But I have SO many loose ends to tie up here before I'm off for 6 months.
