[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Expecting my first. Employer maternity leave is 8 weeks, plus 8 weeks "paid short term disability" (is this typically fully paid? our policy does not indicate what this means). I can tack on 3ish weeks of PTO and beyond that any additional time off would be unpaid. Is there a real difference between going back at ~4 months vs., say, 6? We have a financial cushion but not unlimited funds and the more time I am going to take off, the less money we will have for things like a night nanny. FWIW DH and I make the same amount so loss of my income would be a significant hit on cash flow.[/quote] Drop the night nanny and just formula feed. Time with your baby is more important than breastmilk. Also FF babies sleep better. You’ll be able to switch off with your husband and NO PUMPING. First baby I breastfed. Second I did not and it was a world of difference. [/quote]
