Jacinda Ardern has posted a shot of the workload she's still reading through.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern may officially be on pre-baby birth leave, but there's no sign of her taking it easy.

She's taken to Facebook to post a picture of a two bags filled with briefings and papers that she's taken home after finishing her last day on Friday.

The image of the bags stuffed to the gills was posted at 8.47pm on Saturday night, but there's a hint that that she's spending more time thinking about her own impending birth.

"Even though this is the usual weekend bag of reading and papers, I never get tired of the section dedicated to children's letters that have arrived that week. Total highlight!" she said.
