Thanks for all your replies...... I have had a think and now I am starting to think I should finish earlier, I am not at all used to (what I call) Mooching and I think that is my problem with finishing work so early.

However, I have done my letter and decided that from the start of May I will be cutting down to 3 and a half days a week before finishing totally on 22 May. I am just hoping I don't regret it now..... DP still thinks I should take the time for myself but I can't help but think this is the last chance I am getting to make some money for a long time.

Astrid - I am the same as you, taking PT and that is officially the worst part of my day as I get quite sick on the trains.

For anyone else who is in the same position and can't decide when to finish work I tried something else that I think helped..... A wish list. This was a list of things that I wanted to get done before the bubs is born and realistically if I can take a day off work each week then by the time I actually leave work I should, in theory, be able to put my feet up and catch up with everyone before the baby is born without having to steamclean carpets, move the spare room around etc etc of course my wishlist wasn't full of cleaning duties it also had things I wanted to do with DP before I lose the chance.

I am still thinking about leaving work earlier though - I have about an hour till I hand it in so I better make my mind up and fast!!!
