But ive extended my leave for another two weeks at work.

My last working day is Friday the 18th November. I was supposed to use my last two weeks annual leave between now and then, but since i feel ok and im still not confident on my cover whilst im off. i requested to carry them over to next year and work through them now.

So as sad as it is that i have 2more weeks... (ill be working until 37+4 ) im going to have 7whole weeks holiday to take next year more time with my baby..woohoo!

I think thats a great idea, as long as you feel comfortable to work then why not x

I agree if u feel fine then much better to take ur annual leave when Babba is here

i feel great so im really pleased im working the extra 2weeks. i though at one point it would be nice to have the time off but then i kept thinking about... what if he is 14days overdue then i would of had 6weeks and i would be pulling my hair out haha

as long as u feel fine then go for it. I finished early by taking leave as I had a 2 hour commute each way and it was getting too much!

Think that's a great idea! Just because we're pregnant doesn't mean we have to sit at home. We're not invalids, not ill, and the more active we are the better it is for bubs and us and as the girls have said, you'll have all that extra time to spend with baby when you actually need it !

Loved seeing this post, as I am hoping to work til 37/38 weeks and all I seem to be getting is people telling me I won't be able to and how stupid and naive I am!!! Sod you all!! I'll do it just to prove a point!!

You can do it Hellywelly!!

Im feeling quite fortunate, im sure some people would love to work on when they cant and im lucky my drive to work is only 20mins and im office based so spend a lot of time sitting anyway. i find i actually go for a wander so that im not just sitting for long periods at a time.

All i seem to be getting at the moment is that im quite small and neat in my bump considering there is only 4 weeks left, but i suppose thats a positive for me i have tried to stay active through the pregnancy with plenty of long walks and when i feel i can im doing the powerwalks too oh and aquanatal. i have piled some weight on from start of pregnancy to now im on just less than 2.5stone weight gain but i dont feel that much heavier.

I hope you can do it too!! Its more time with LO when they arrive

I'm doin the same as u and am exactly one week later than u on all the dates last day is 25th nov and baby due 12th Dec. Think it's a good plan to get all the time off after baby is here
