[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly it will depend on our work environment. I’m in the corporate environment and was judged for having a baby, let alone 2. I took 4 months with each and DH took 4 months with each. He was praised (“what a super dad”). I was judged (“mommy tracking her career” and “she’ll never return to full capacity”). Expect this! That said - you will literally never get this time back with your child![/quote] I am so sorry you work in such a toxic environment. I am also in the corporate environment and have gotten nothing but support, encouragement, and understanding from my colleagues and supervisors/higher ups, with a solid plan to ramp up when I return after my combined FMLA/personal leave of absence 5 month leave. Anyway OP, enjoy. Time spent with kids is always time well-spent.[/quote]
