[quote=Anonymous]OP so here’s the thing, I believe the time you are pregnant counts towards FMLA and a pregnancy is typically around 40 weeks. So how long will you have worked at your job when you deliver? If you worked there for a few months and then got pregnant and then work your whole pregnancy, I think you can qualify right before you have the baby if you hit your one year anniversary. Just a thought. Also, I don’t mean this to sound unkind, but your husband sounds really unintelligent. I would be worried to have a child with someone so ignorant about what it entails. Does he realize you will either be recovering from major abdominal surgery or major pelvic floor trauma and also have a massive internal flesh wound that bleeds for 6 weeks (where your placenta detached from the uterus) as well as going through the biggest hormone shift of your life—all while learning to breastfeed and keep a small human alive 24-7 and deal with major sleep deprivation?
