[quote=Anonymous]With #1 I worked until 3 days after my due date. I had a check up that day and I was exhausted and miserable, and at my request my OB gave me a note to start my leave. Not sure if it was required by my employer, but I wanted to cover bases. Anyway I wrapped up some stuff, sent my last emails, etc. and settled in for a relaxing evening and the baby wait. Went into labor about 2 hours later. #2 was a scheduled induction and again I worked until the day before. But I didn’t have maternity leave and work on a very small team, so was back to work around 11 weeks both times. If I had 6 months leave I would absolutely have stopped a week or so before my due date. Several of my friends took off the last 2 weeks. Good luck and congrats![/quote]
