I work a desk job, so I was sitting most of my pregnancy up until the day I delivered. I would drink lots of water and sit when you can. Walking a lot will come in handy when you're close to your due date though. I walked a ton the weekend before I delivered. I'm convinced it's why I went a few days early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-did-i-go-back-to-work-so-late-in-pregnancy#post-1433365 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 10:53:55 +0000 petunia354 1433365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was in the ER for a stomach bug when DS was 5 months and my nurse was like 6 or 7 months preg and MISERABLE. I felt so bad for her.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-did-i-go-back-to-work-so-late-in-pregnancy#post-1433273 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 10:16:15 +0000 mfa_lady 1433273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hugs, girl! Take care of yourself!

I am a social worker, so I do a fair amount of running around and being on my feet, but nothing like those nurses do - at least I don't have to lift patients! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-did-i-go-back-to-work-so-late-in-pregnancy#post-1433113 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 09:26:09 +0000 Mrsjets 1433113@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last time I had a desk job so it wasn't a big deal. This time I'm also at a desk and find it a lot easier to be at my part time job than parenting my 21 month old! Hope you get some rest! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-did-i-go-back-to-work-so-late-in-pregnancy#post-1433091 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 09:16:06 +0000 Smurfette 1433091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a desk job so it was much easier. I have no idea how people are 38+ weeks and on their feet all day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-did-i-go-back-to-work-so-late-in-pregnancy#post-1433090 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 09:15:54 +0000 LuLu Mom 1433090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Take care of yourself momma! Hopefully that baby comes soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-did-i-go-back-to-work-so-late-in-pregnancy#post-1433080 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 09:12:40 +0000 swurlygurl 1433080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man :(</p> <p>Well, I had a desk job, so it wasn't much different than sitting on my butt at home.</p> <p>Major props to all pregnant mommas with active jobs (and active children!!). I had a waitress who was 8.5 months pregnant, poor thing was miserable!</p> <p>Hopefully you got a foot massage or something from DH! &lt;3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/why-did-i-go-back-to-work-so-late-in-pregnancy#post-1432864 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 02:38:18 +0000 anonysquire 1432864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you kidding me? I'm an idiot!! For some unknown reason I decided to work tonight and my body is protesting. I finally am sitting down after running back and forth taking care of patients and limping like a 100yr old man. </p> <p>I think I thought working would put me into labor. Well it's just putting me in a bad mood. I am bowing down to all of you who work their entire pregnancy and don't complain!! </p>
