I found out today that I can have up to 60 days of maternity leave which is 2 months (unpaid). I'm going to try and keep working until my due date and take a month of maternity leave and then I will have the rest of the summer off. I would probably go insane at home anyway...at least the work days will make it go by faster.

My advice would be...stop working when you no longer feel up2 it. Im a nurse and do crazy hours and crazy shifts at that...i planned on staying on right till the end however i shall be leaving when i am 36 weeks which is approximatly 2weeks time! You just know hun, my employers were great and offered to reduce my hours however i wanted to work my full hours!...just dont over do it

i worked till 38 weeks (i am a teacher too)... and didn't think it would be a problem - but was knackered by the end - especially at end of term - because i found work did not let up or stop the pressure just kept coming particularly at the end of term...

Good luck with whatever you decide to do... BTW are you in the uk?
