I teach year four at a small independent school.
I'm definitely finding it harder in this pregnancy. My first pregnancy was really easy and straightforward, I had no complications and worked until 36 weeks. She was born ten days late, so I wished I'd stayed at work a bit longer! I was still teaching PE and doing play ground duty right until the end.
This time I'm already struggling. I have SPD, which makes everything much harder! I don't have to teach PE now, as we have a specialist teacher for that, and I've had to drop my playtime and lunchtime duties. It definitely doesn't help that the heating and electricity at work has been broken since we came back after Christmas, and won't be fixed until half term (in two weeks time). So it's freezing in my classroom! The lowest temperature I've observed was just 4degrees! This time I'm planning to work until 39 weeks...We'll see!
So, how are all the other pregnant teachers getting on in third tri?
