hi there, with my first i finished up at 33.5 weeks and baby arrived at 34.5 weeks so i only had one week off before he arrived! at the time there was no indication that he would arrive so early although looking back now i should have probably spotted the signs. with the 2nd i finished up at 31 weeks just in case and was induced at 38.5 weeks so there was a long waiting period - i got a bit bored. this third time around i finished up when i was 11 weeks pregnant as i was really sick and i found it pretty tough not being at work but just in the last two weeks (am now 32 weeks) i am loving the fact im not at work and can spend time with my older two.

36.5 weeks sounds like a good time to finish up and i guess if bubs comes early than you can deal with that then.

best wishes
