    Trini -it would be best to call them now and see what they say.

    You will be expected to look for work before 36 weeks though.

    ditto what Lulu said - though i think it's 34 weeks, not 36 weeks - and only then will you be able to to be exempted with a letter from your are provider stating when your EDD is

    Leash sorry i havent read through the entire thread, but i too had to go through jobseeking activities weekly when i was pg as i wasnt working. it was a PITA but i guess it has to be done, pregnant or not!!

    i had to go to a job network place and fill out a massive folder.. the supervisor used to work for my mum, and was really lenient and told me to come at least 2 times a week.. rather than daily. thank god!
