Is anyone else just completely fed up with having to go to work?! I am 30 weeks at the moment and wont finish for another 7 weeks but just can't be bothered with all the running about and stress of work. Today I could hardly even drag myself out of bed and when I was there, I could have cried! I've no idea how I'm going to get through everything before I go off. I know I am just feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment, but I can't seem to pull myself together about it all. Work are fine superficially but the pressures just keep on coming. Anyone got any advice/tips?

Its so true that its not just physical tiredness but also that feling of just not being able to be bothered about work stuff, I keep thinking I would be much rather thinking and planning for baby's arrival, not worrying about other people's stuff at work.
Have decided that if I feel the same way next week, I am definitely taking some time off xx

I am 35 weeks, due to finish work (3.5 days) in 2 weeks - absolutely fed up with it. Very short fuse, fed up of dealing with other people's problems, struggling with SPD and now have found out the baby is transverse so may have to have an early section....... Very tempted just to jack it all in but would really dump my colleagues in it. Also feeling bad as I'm being a bit snappy with my DC's (6 and 3) and not able to do anything at home (have a lovely DH fotunately) Can you think about finishing sooner and give them plenty of notice? If I had realised how I would feel now, I would have arranged to finish at 34 or 35 weeks and wouldn't feel I was letting people down..... Hang in there.
