will baby arrive early?

A coworker of mine's cousin just gave birth to her first baby. She was due August 28th, and had the baby yesterday.. august 4th.

so... How common is it to have a baby early? if I plan to work until November 25th, and I'm due November 30th... what happens?

I don't really want to stay there so long, but I don't want to have to leave before I'm scheduled to.

Labor is scary enough.. now I have to worry about being at work when it happens?

Actually, the nice thing about being at work would be that there are all kinds of people around, so you wouldn't freak out about being alone.

And both of my girls were late; Beege was due Nov. 23rd and didn't bother coming out til Dec. 6 (and needed to be induced, remember?), Kee was due on May 26th and didn't bother til June 2.

If you're really worried, maybe leave the week before you planned to instead?
