[quote=Anonymous]I work for the government which doesn't have maternity leave or STD. I could buy a separate STD plan but for the ones that I looked at, you had to wait 12 months to be eligible for the benefits and I was already pregnant at that point. I also worked for small govt contracting firms that had no maternity but had STD (I think it was weeks with part time pay). What some moms that I used to work with did was go back to work part time. That way you have some sort of a paycheck but you still have time with your child. Of course that presents another issue with childcare for the hours that you are working. I hope someone else can come up with a good suggestion for you. But as for me, once I use up my sick leave and vacation leave, I'm basically taking leave without pay. [/quote]
