How long did you or are you planning on working until?

before the baby is born?

I worked FT until basically right before my son was born. A week before my due date, I left work on that Friday, went to a normal doctor appt., they did an ultrasound to see how big the baby was, and then told me right then and there that they were scheduling a C-section for that Monday! But, my son didn't want to wait, I went into labor around 2:30am Sat/Sun morning.

So, I did work until the end basically! I didn't need to take off weeks prior to his birth. I guess you would only need to do that if you were having problems in your PG.
