I took 5 weeks in 1st tri to stabilise preg during 1st preg. 1 week right before I deliver. Now 2nd preg, my gynae gave me 2 weeks hl again, then see how again 2 weeks later..

I took hospitalisation leave for 2 and half weeks before I gave birth as I was feeling too lethargic to work (not able to cope with 10 hours of work a day).

Nope. Worked all the way till I had my elective csec! I'm taking all my ML and some extra, so I wanted to pull my weight before going on leave.

Hi there yes i took two weeks before my EDD. If ur doctor wanna give u just take so you can rest and prepare for the coming of ur newborn.

Hey, I think it really depends on your condition and also if you are able to work properly. Else you can always take HL earlier

Depends on your condition. Do you feel OK working? Your doctor is so good.. Rare to see doctor that initiate to give HL.

I started HL on 4th July, popped on 9th August. Edd was 16th August. So almost 1.5 month before edd.

Yup, I was too tired/lethargic and needed some rest. I took HL at Week 36 and gave birth at Week 37.

Gave birth at 37 weeks.. and complications?

Took 2 wks of HL before delivering at wk39.

Preferably is 2 weeks before your EDD.
