[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The federal government has only obliged itself to grant 12 weeks of FMLA. So even if you had a bunch of sick leave you wanted to burn in addition to the new parental leave, your job may not be there when you get back. Also, kids==getting sick. You're going to need that leave as soon as they go to daycare.[/quote] I think this is the most likely answer. OPM will write the rules and it is possible they will allow 6-8 weeks + 12 weeks (if your supervisor allows, which they don't have to since FMLA is 12 weeks) but if I were them I would write the rules such that you can no longer take sick leave for recovery from uncomplicated childbirth (or to care for someone recovering from uncomplicated childbirth).[/quote]
