If you're in the U.S., wait as long as possible. They're stingy with maternity leave and you don't want to waste days still being pregnant. I worked up til my due date last time and the baby was 5 days late. :-W
If you can stand it anyway. It got a bit uncomfortable for me in the end and I probably wouldn't have wanted to go to work those last few days anyway. Take more rest if you need to cause Lord knows you won't be getting any for quite some time after the baby is born. But still...my preference would be to be dog tired and spend the extra five days with my baby.
It really depends on ur body. Wit my son I wrkd all da way thru n I stoppd wrkng 2 days b4 my due date n I wnt n a week lata. I wrkd 8 hours ova nite standn up. Wit dis prgncy I dnt wrk cuz im a full-time student.

I'm in Canada, so our mat leave is pretty good here. I plan on staying at work until a week or two till my due date. Mostly just want to give myself some time to organize the baby room, buy the car seat ect. (My family is pretty superstitious, so everyone is really against buying much of anything until last minute, so as not to "jinx" anything. ) But if I'm comfortable,and can do it, I might try to stay until June 1st, when my due date is June 9th.
