working til my due date
7 Answers
Im working right up til my due date (not out of choice as my maternity isnt that great and i want to spend as much time with my baby after) Im really starting to struggle now, its more tiredness and thinking i should be relaxing with my feet up. Is it a good idea to work right up til 40 weeks? Anyone else done it and wished they hadnt?

i ended up at home.
I must admit I wasn't particularly tired before but was afterwards, I went back to work at 2 months. It can be done but you do need to rest when you can.
Good luck

depends on the sort of work you are doing, the hours you work and youre travelling times etc.
I worked up to 42 weeks with my first but i sat at a desk all day and was healthy and my pregnancy was going fine.
Again with my second i worked up until 40+4 and then gave birth.
There is no point in continuing if you cant cope as it wont do you any good, have you any holiday due that you can take before your maternity leave?

Great to hear your responses guys. Its nice to know theres lots of people in the same boat.
Im 36 weeks pregnant at the mo, i work at stansted airport as an engineering co-ordinator, i do work at a desk but i do alot of rushing around the airport. Im doing the same as most really, im working til the last minute for financial reasons so i use my maternity after the baby is born rather than start it before.
I guess i just need to take every day as it comes, i sware im only gonna last another 2 weeks
Wish me luck :)
