When is everyone going to work their last week before their LO debuts? I am due December 21 but can't decide on a date. My boss is very flexible and told me that I can leave anytime that I would like and they will adjust accordingly... But I gotta pick a date and I just don't know when to! /: I was thinking maybe the week before thanksgiving so ill be 35 weeks going on 36... Anyone else? I wonder what the chances of LO coming early is! Who knows! Too bad babies don't work around your schedules... Ha ha
We've discussed this here before. But I'm due 12/20 and my last scheduled day of work is the day after Thanksgiving and I'll be exactly 37 weeks on my last day.
For me personally, I would go stir crazy if I left at 35 or 36 weeks. I'd rather use that time for after the baby arrives.
I'm leaving 1 week before my DD, on Dec 20th. I would probably work right up to the end if our Christmas holidays didn't start on the 23rd.
I think I'll work until I go into labor. I just learned how expensive taking time off from work is when you have benefits at your job. I'm due December 2 but hopefully this guy will come early
My due date is December 24th (while I hope I have baby a little early), I am in the hair industry and this is our busiest time of the year. According to our work books my last day is December 21st. I could potentially have some clients not happy with there Christmas hair.
RCS is on 12/2. I was hoping my last day could be 11/2, just over 36 wks. Practically speaking, I will go as long as I can. There's a lifting requirement with my job, and no 'light duty'. Although my manager is awesome about creating unofficial light duty situations for me. So we'll see.
I'm due 12/25, but will probably be done working 12/13 unless a C-section at 38 weeks is still the plan. I had a complete previa a few months ago but it seems to be moving.
I'm also self-employed sooooo I can sit in my office and not work if I wanted, or I can lay in my bed and continue to work. We'll see what happens.
At this point unless my doctor changes things I plan to work until LO is here. I'm hoping I can make it that long since I don't have a paid maternity leave.
Like a lot of others, working until I can't or until baby comes. I do have the ability to work from home, which I would do in the event that I get put on bed rest or things get too uncomfortable. I don't get a lot of time and I don't want to use it before baby is even here.
I'm scheduled for RCS on 12/9 and strongly considering not going back after Thanksgiving. If I do go back might do a modified day or work til that Wed 12/4 to be at the last big staff mtg for the month that my Dept. does.
My RCS is scheduled for Dec 31st (Tuesday). My last day of work will be the Friday before. I want the day before to get everything ready for DS to spend the week with my parents
I'm due 12/26. Our last student day before break is 12/20. I hope to make it to that day and don't care what happens afterwards. The personnel department hasn't responded to my email about my options yet... I know it's 14 weeks away but I need to get my life lined up!
I working til the week before I'm due which my boss isn't happy about but all I can collect is disability no vacation or paid maternity leave so I'm waiting as long as possible
My due date is 12/2. So my last day of work will be November 27th which is the day before Tgiving. I would go absolutely crazy if I took off before my due date! I need something to occupy my thoughts and days before she is born
One month before due date.....
My job is already getting difficult because of its physical demands . I can't imagine being able to work in the last month.
I'm lucky enough to leave early so might as well .
I plan on working until he comes. Although, we will have a scheduled induction due to a few concerns from the doctor. We won't be able to plan that date until 6 weeks prior, so depending on when that is, I will probably just take a few days off before.

I'm due Dec 1st (the Sunday after Thanksgiving), so I told my boss I'm making my last day the day before Thanksgiving (I'll be 39 + 3). I'm already so so tired, IDK how I'm going to last that long.
