[quote=Anonymous]15:38 back.  BTW, I meant mgnt doesn't like employees who try to "game" the system, not "buck".

OP, I worked up until the day before my wedding and I worked two professional level job up to the day I delivered.  Contrary to what you said, I've never known anyone to take a full month off to prep for having a baby.  It sounds heavenly, but companies don't like the upset that a baby brings so usually employees try to draw as little attention to it as possible and hang in the job and try to be as helpful as possible.  The only situations that I know of where the mom to be took time off pre-baby was when there was a serious risk and Mom had to be on bedrest either at a hospital or at home before the baby was born.

To the HR specialist immediate above:  an employee can quality for COBRA whether or not they are fired or resign, correct?  But it doesn't sound like OP understands how expensive COBRA is.  I've had to COBRA out twice and it was very expensive for a family (I was carrying everyone).

Speaking of which, I am wondering if the reason OP is not on her husband's policy is because either a) he doesn't have one; or b) they are not married.  [/quote]
