    I finished up at work when I was 30 weeks & it couldn't have come quickly enough!!
    I loved being home for 10 weeks, just did whatever I wanted. DH had some time off too & we did a couple of little trips away. I wasn't bored at all!!
    I think it does depend on the kind of work you do - as a nurse at an aged care facility I was well & truly over it by 24 weeks lol.
    Sounds like you would do well to finish up earlier so you can get your new house organised - you definitely won't be up to it in the later weeks!!

    Finishing work earlier the better I think (only from my experience though). I finished work the 1st week of December which was when I was about 34 weeks. I had my DS on the 27th December, he came 3.5 weeks early! So i was lucky to have a couple of weeks at home before he arrived.
    Goodluck with the moving!
