When to stop work and start maternity?

Hi ladies! So I'm hoping to work up until I'm 37 weeks (currently 31+2). I'm a nursery nurse and finding each day is just becoming more and more of a struggle with the lifting, nappy changes and the constant getting up and down 😩 Let alone if a child falls and I can't react as quickly as I used to! I'm there trying to get up asap but look like a turtle stuck on it's back! What do you ladies do and when do you plan to leave?
