I'm 36 weeks and still working as a nurses aide. I don't want to take maternity leave cuz being home drives me crazy. Not to mention I'm so worried financially I'm not ready to be off.  Having a csection sept 2 and if things go as planned I'm gonna work till the 1st

33+5 and I plan on working until my son is born. Then barring no major complications arise, I will be back to work within 1-2 weeks' time. My boss is allowing me to bring him to work with me since I plan on nursing, and has no problem with me doing that for as long as I need/want to continue.

I'll be working full time until 8 days before my due date (counting down the days to August 30th!!) I'm on my feet all day on concrete in heels (dress code at my bridal shop) lifting dresses that weigh as Mich as 50lbs, so I feel your pain brynn01mommy! Just listen to your body & don't push yourself too hard! I've learned to take a break & sit for a minute when I need to-to pee when I have to go-even if I just went 10 minutes ago-and to take it easy when I'm having more painful days. I can't wait to not have my feet swell up like balloons every day because of my stupid shoes!!
