[quote=Anonymous]I would take as long as you can. If that is 6 weeks, that sucks but it is what it is. I assume that since your DH is at home, the plan is that he takes over child care. I would be MUCH more comfortable with going back to work earlier with baby staying with DH than daycare. Some places allow for splits - so you can take your 6 weeks medical from recovery from child birth and then take the remaining time later. So, if hubby gets a job, you could go back on leave. Something to explore. Also, don't lock yourself in. If at 6 weeks you are not ready, tell your boss you are extending. I wish I had the first time. I cried in my car every day, and I should have just extended my leave[/quote]
