I quit at about 3 months. My job was just too stressful. This is my last pregnancy so I wanted to enjoy it.

I'm planning to work until im 37 weeks then go on disability, I'm currently 33 weeks and I just feel miserable at work, alot of nausea through out the day and back pain after work. I'm trying to go as far as I can but Im starting to be really drained.

I worked on a friday. Went in labor friday night and had my daughter Saturday! I was a little uncomfortable in my 3rd trimester but honestly I felt pretty good. I hope to be the same with this one.

I had to quit working at 24 weeks due to high risk of preterm labor. I am still on bed rest to this day and I am 34+5 today.

During my first pregnancy I worked full time as a CNA in a nursing home (constant standing, walking, lifting, bending, squatting, pushing, pulling, etc) until I was 38 weeks and my midwives told me I had to stop because my ankles were swelling so badly and my blood pressure was getting too high. Most of the time women can physically continue working up until their due dates unless the environment is dangerous to the fetus (like excessive noise or use of chemicals) or unless complications occur.
