I finished work three weeks before DD was born because there was no point me finishing earlier. I had grand plans of freezing lots of food, doing stuff around the house but I had an unstable pelvis from Week 28 making it hard to walk, stand or bend. So no point being at home on the couch I figured. Might as well work (they let me get a taxi to and from) and bring in the dollars.

But I did get really tired in the mornings and could have done with the sleep-ins. Infact I was way more tired when I was pregnant than I was when DD came along.

Maybe compromise with your DP and pick a date between 1 and 22 May.
