I finished work at 34 weeks and I'm sooooo glad that I did!!! Originally, I was thinking of finishing at 36 weeks, giving me 4 weeks before my EDD but one of my friends went into labour at 36 weeks, on her last day of work (first bub) and it kind of freaked me out a bit - she even missed her farewell lunch!!!

I had a VERY stressful and demanding job though, so there's no way I could of worked another day - the last week was hard enough!! I was surprised at just how tired I was getting, so take that into consideration!! It's also very hard to stay motivated when you know you're leaving and once you hit 30 weeks, it's all about getting ready for bubs (well I thought so anyway). Also, because my job was quite full on, I didn't get time to do much preparation for bubs arrival - so the last two weeks, since I finished work have been able to get everything ready and I couldn't have put that off much longer either as everything is sooo much harder to do now that I'm so huge and tired!!!

Good luck!!
