December babies - when are you finishing work?

[lottietat]

Those of you mums to be in December, when are you planning on finishing work? I am due 29th December, but thinking about the weather and possible snow, I plan to finish 9th December. Do you think this is too early? I am hopefully going to take 12 months off.

I'm due 24th Dec but can pretty much finish when i like as i am a temp and not entitled to any maternity pay. I was thinking of seeing how i feel but i imagine i would want to work at all for the last two or three weeks

I am due 30 December and am starting maternity leave on 25 December, but am taking the 4 weeks before that off as annual leave, so end of November really. Can't wait!!

I'm due the 12th Dec so am taking 2 weeks off before as AL. Last working day is 25th nov so I have 2.5 weeks off before baby due. Can't wait to finish work for 6-7months

Im not due til begining of Jan but looks like will be earlier possibly before christmas. I'm going to start my maternity leave at the begining of november purely because I have to drive over a moor to get to work for 3.5hrs 4 days a week and as we had heavy snow at the begining of november last year the moors were unpassable til pretty much January.
It works out in my favour to go on maternity leave that early as I'm will be getting £10 a week pay less than what I get now and it costs me £20 a week in fuel.

I have also been offered a new job in spring working for the vet who treats my horses, being his equine nurse for his new equine veterinary clinic that is being built and will open in spring, so I cant really lose.

I'm due 26/12/11 and my last working day will be 09/12/11. They make us leave two weeks before baby is due because of the industry we're in (steel making).
