Maternity leave

So I was goin to try to work up until I went into labor but the contractions are getting stronger so i decided to start my maternity leave next week. I was worried because its gonna be two weeks before I was due and I would probably only have 4 weeks left when my baby came but I talked to my manager today and she said I can have up to three months and just let her know when I'm ready to come back:) I'm excited that'll I'll have so much time to adjust and bond with my baby. I'm a ftm so this is really special to me lol sorry if its too long

If you are eligible (US) you get Up to 12 weeks of FMLA each year unpaid. You just need to speak to your supervisor or HR dept to find out your companies policy and to get the paperwork for your doctor to fill out.
