[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks for everyone’s responses. Based on this I’m talking to HR about taking 16 - 18 weeks. Hoping that’s enough. Another question (and again thank you all so much for your help) - did having a preemie push you towards nanny instead of daycare? We did a daycare situation with my daughter but I’m thinking a nanny may be better in terms of reduced risk of illnesses? [/quote] If your husband has leave, I'd make sure he also takes the maximum and stagger it with yours to extend the time the baby is cared for by a parent. If your older daughter is in daycare, that will already bring illnesses into the house. You'd want a nanny for both, but then you'd lose your daycare slot.[/quote]
