I'm seriously thinking of packing in work earlier than I intended. I had planned to work to 34.5 weeks which would be the end of May, but frankly I'm exhausted. I can't get comfy at my desk, going up and down the stairs is killing me and I'm fed up with what I'm doing. I'm not doing any "proper" work just gearing other people up to cover me plus I'm getting hacked off with my employers and having to argue with them about stuff they're doing wrong.
I have a load of holidays left to take (3 weeks) which I was going to start with and then start my maternity leave when that ran out. As it was those 3 weeks took me up to nearly 38 weeks by which time I could be on leave anyway if the babies appear before then. I worked out this morning that I could finish on 4th May instead with a bit of juggling around and my maternity leave would only start 2 weeks earlier than I'd originally planned.
DH isn't keen though, cos he thinks I'll just be bored lazing around at home cos I can't do much but I would just like to be able to have a nap in the afternoon if I need one and a bit of a lie in in the morning and potter round doing a bit of nesting/housework. I've only been back two days and I'm knackered! Been asleep this evening for an hour, but the trouble is, sleeping at that time of the evening kinda messes up sleeping at night.
What would you do?
