Q: service battery

I have a mid 2012 macbook pro. I just noticed a "service battery" warning, but until today received no other warnings, such as "replace soon" which apparently should appear before "service battery." I'm a grad student who needs access to a computer daily. Any idea on how long it takes to replace the battery and if I can safely hold out another month? I know the cost is around $139. Also: I checked on the apple site. My mac should have (potentially) 1000 max recharges. It is only at 400ish. Is this normal for it to die so early?

MacBook Pro, iOS 6
