Today is my last day! I had planned on working two more weeks but I've been in so much pain my Dr has signed me off early. I only get paid if I'm out on sick leave so might as well take it.

There's no way I could work my heavy job plus shift and 48hr weeks until the baby comes, but part of me wishes I could so I could have more time afterwards!

But I'm waving the red flag at 34 weeks which still feels a long way away!

Am lucky to be having a full year off afterwards so that's something to look forward to! X

My work is along the lines of Sew_sweet's. I'm technically doing 3 or 3.5 days a week in the office, but I just can't be arsed and I find the desk so damn uncomfortable. My boss pretty much knows that I'm doing very very little, but I don't think he minds or he'd have said something. He's encouraged me to work at least one of those days at home, which does not exactly do wonders for the productivity. Only 4 weeks to go, 13 office days!

I will be working until labor begins for sure! I own my own bakery and its a catch 22 sometimes. I need to be here as much as possible to work and make sure I can show my girls how to do somethings that I normally do when the baby does come, but then I can also sit down when I need to or get up and walk around when I need to. The worst part is my decorator is also pregnant and due about 6 weeks after me. Her and I are the only 2 decorators so I will feel a little rushed to come back to full duty after little man arrives so she can go have hers. Too bad I probably wont be getting my 6 weeks mat leave but have to give her a full 6. BOO!

Hahaha yes this is what I mean by "working" too. Today I have not done any actual work, and it's 2:30 PM already.

I finish next thursday, would be willing to do more but my company requires you to finish no later than 3 weeks before your due date. Kind of hope baby comes early as I want as much time as possible with LO before returning to work.
