Hi all...I was wondering how long you work until...I am trying to get in my 600 hours for maternity and parental leave (in Canada that's what you need) but I am worried that I won't make it to the 8th month...I already feel really bloated and tired and I start my new job on Monday...I am 18 weeks now and don't know if I can last for four more months!!

Hi - what kind of a job do you do? If you are standing and have heavy work load then it may be harder to be on your feet past the 8th month. I live in Canada too, and i intend to work up to the 9th month but my job is sitting at a desk most of the day so I don't think I'll have too much trouble staying at work 'till the 9th month.

I am at 16 weeks, and my Dr. told me that I need to minimize my lifting by 20 weeks, and quit lifting by 24 weeks. (Lifting is a major part of my job). I am due on August 27th, and he said that as long as I am not lifting, I can work right up to the end, while others would opt to take leave in the Middle to the end of July. I plan to take my leave at the end of July.

I am due July 25, and I plan on working until July 8. As long as the doctor doesn't tell me differently. I have an office job so I am sitting most of the day, and nobody in my office will allow me to lift a thing. I am not complaining about that. hee hee. Heather...I am just curious, what kind of a job do you have??
