Hey Belle

I am giving up work at 27 weeks so I am having 3 months off before our first Bubba arrives into the world. It's personal choice so it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks (your comment about slacking off etc). I work in an office and it's a very stressful environment and field so I am definately taking advantage of leaving work early! You get comments of "won't you be bored" and "that sounds great" so everyone always has a different opinion in my eyes. You just do what's best for you! You read so much stuff in magazines and books and some say it's best to give up at 32 weeks. But all in all, I believe it's the personal choice of the mother.
