Last pregnancy I finished up at 37 1/2 weeks. Really should have stopped before that, I was exhausted, but I was also studying part time as well. I did not find work that hard, it was the physical getting to and from work via public transport that really knocked me about. I spent the next 4 weeks sleeping on the couch every afternoon for about 3 hours, so I got nothing done at home that I planned to. With hindsight I should have stopped work earlier, or maybe dropped to part-time, but we really did need the money. My replacement had already started, so I was just socialising for the last couple of weeks, so part time was a viable option.
Don't push yourself unless you really need to.
