Finding it hard?

Ashley
I am now going to be 33 weeks and am finding it hard to continue working! I almost dread going to work, though I love what I do. I get tired easily and am already looking forward to my maternity leave which doesn't come for another 5-6 weeks. Am I just being lazy? Anyone else feel this way??

I feel the same way and I'm only 31 weeks haha. I think you just get to the point where you know you haven't got long to go to meet your baby and you just want to hurry up and finish work. Being tired makes it harder too but that's to be expected!

Oh yes. I feel like I have slowed down soooo much this week at work. For the first time all year I got overwhelmed to the point of tears after school one day. And I'm usually super patient with my 3rd graders, but this week I found myself less and less up for dealing with their shenanigans... I'm almost 31 weeks, still have 6 weeks left. I think it's partly the physical symptoms, and partly the emotions that come with knowing we're just a few weeks from meeting our babies!

I am 30 weeks and am finding it hard to deal with my fifth graders. I am very short fused at the moment! Hang in there!

I'm sticking in there till the last day... I arranged my schedule to come in late cuz morning is the hard part....even though I'm tired in trying to save days for baby bc I know if I have to return before 3 months I'll be a disaster!

I did the exact same thing. Starting in Feb, I'll be able to come in a bit later.

I feel the same. I'm 34 weeks and about halfway into my 12 hr shift, I'm exhausted and want to take a nap. I'm a nurse and it sucks bc sometimes I don't want to take care of sick people all day and listen to their complaints. I just want to lay down and have my feet rubbed!!!

I equally am beginning to struggle, so much so I've asked if I can leave a bit earlier. I'm 33 weeks too.
