How'd you decide when to stop working?

  I finished up on Friday with 4 weeks to go. We get pretty good maternity leave here, and you have to go by law at 2 weeks in advance of your EDD. Have to say, life is much easier since I stopped. I was totally done, but now I feel I could do this for a while longer if Baby decided not to come on time. Hats off to all you ladies who work till the end.

  I'm due 3/14 and this Friday (2/28) is my last day. I'm really looking forward to having a few weeks off before babe arrives - fingers crossed

  I planned to work up until I went into labor, however my OB pulled the plug Friday at my appt due to a sudden increase in bp over the last two weeks or so and traces of protein in my urine. I'm right at 36wks so this is definitely earlier than planned but health of LO comes first. I was planning on taking 12 weeks PP and still intend to do so; planning on these weeks prior to delivery to come out of ELB time. I have a mtg with HR this afternoon to discuss
