I worked untill 38 & 1/2 weeks, I'm employeed as a florist and would generally spend long days on my feet.

Not having any option of paid leave I really needed to work for as long as possible. I was really nervous about how my body would handle working untill late in the pregnancy and was really scared about approaching my employers. However my employers were great, we sat down and I explained my need to work as long as possible and they tailored different jobs for me that meant I could spend the majority of my time at work off my feet. They were also really flexible with me cutting back my hours as needed.
