38 weeks still driving

Hi ladies, I would like to know if it's safe to be still driving, the mall is not to far from my house. But sometimes I wonder if it's safe or okay. I only do it maybe once  or twice a week.

Unless you have health problems there's no reason why you can't drive until the day the baby is born. I personally dont drive unless I have to and never at night. But that's because I was in a horrible accident 2 weeks ago and can't force myself to drive after dark now

I'm closer to my due date and driving no problem.  I think it's personal preference,  how comfy you feel driving. .. i find it a bit difficult getting in and out of car but driving no problem :-)

Uhhh... I drove up until the day I gave birth which was 40+4, I've never heard of stopping driving while your pregnant unless on bed rest.
