How far along do you plan to be when you stop working?

Question

I'm just curious.. I originally wanted to work until I go into labor but my body is starting to really kill me while I work so I was thinking about taking my maternity leave at like 37 weeks or something. 😖

Quitting early just means less time home with LO under fmla. I'll probably go into labor at work but if that means I get a full 12 weeks then so be it!

I would've stayed longer than 29 weeks but I work at a restaurant and the stress was too high. I've also been so exhausted I literally can't keep up anymore.

Answer

34 weeks because they won't allow us to work past this time ( sydney , Australia ) with out a drs letter every week I can't be bothered to visit a dr every week let alone remember to get the letter and besides I'm taking all my annual leave which will take me to the day I give birth

Answer

I'm 24 weeks and originally planned to work right up until I had the baby. I had pre eclampsia and kidney issues with my first two and it seems I'm getting it again this time so I'm not sure how long I'll last. I already want to go off on unpaid sick leave as in Australia our maternity leave doesn't start until the day baby is born.
