[quote=Anonymous]Most people don't "ramp down," I don't think. I"m pretty sure, absent any medical issues, most women work up until they give birht, or at least their due date. I was on bed rest from 36 weeks so I used STD but I can tell you that the STD carrier asked for a TON of verification that I truly couldn't work -- test results, a diagnosis, etc. Even if my doctor would have written a note just because I'd asked, there's no way the carrier would have paid it. As far as using sick leave, if you work for a private employer that's going to be up to their discretion. If you don't want to go through HR, can you talk to other women who have done a similar thing before? It's not a legal question, it's more about your company policy, so not something anonymous posters can answer.[/quote]
