[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can take it “intermittently” with a split over the summer, yes. [b]It cannot total more than 16 weeks of the family bonding leave.[/b] I am a school employee due in May and planning to take 6-8 of medical FMLA, then summer break, then use the 16 weeks of family bonding FMLA beginning at the start of the school year. I believe any week that teachers / staff are required to work at all even for one day will count as a whole week off the 16, though. So even if the week of Thanksgiving is only 3 work days, it will decrease your remaining FMLA availability by 1 whole week. [/quote]
The 16-week bonding cap is going to be a challenge for OP. If she’s planning to give birth in Jan, she’ll use all of her FMLA (both medical and bonding) by the end of the school year. She most likely won’t have any leave left for Sept. Unless she works for a school system that gets out in May.[/quote] Thanks. I'm trying to determine the windows I should try to get pregnant in, like the earliest we can try so our leave could align with summer break. In the January scenario, I'd use all my leave, then my fiance would use some of his leave and use the rest in September. [/quote]
