[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The conference seems excessive. But splitting his leave would be smart. Maybe a month in beginning especially to help with older children, and another chunk when you return to work, save some for doc visits and any illnesses. [/quote] I get no paid maternity leave, just taking time off all unpaid. My plan is for husband to take a week or two in the beginning and then a few more weeks after I return- frankly I'd prefer the majority of the time when I'm working and vice versa do a) have him practice caring for the kid independently/bonding and 2) delaying cost of childcare. but he also works from home- i'd be furious if he wanted to go to a conference 3 weeks after delivery[/quote] PP I was unpaid as well. Which was another reason he accepted the few days he was able to. I’m self employed and saved some, but it wasn’t enough to have us both home. [/quote]
