I don't get any maternity leaveChat Icon we have been saving so hopefully I can take 3 months without working at all and then I am trying to arrange a p/t work from home for 9 additional months. We both would prefer for me to be home with the baby for the 1st year.

Definitely 14 weeks and looking to take off an additional 3 months. It depends on a variety of factors.

I get 4 weeks before the due date at full pay, and then 6 weeks for a vag/8 weeks for a c at 2/3 pay. I will then be taking 3 weeks carryover vacation from this year and probably a week or two from next year's vacation.

I get 6 weeks vag / 8 weeks c-section at full pay, then I will probably take another 4-6 weeks using vacation time and unpaid.

I am going to try to work until the very end.

Similar for me, too.

I get 12 weeks paid. However, there is a strong possiblility that I will be on bed rest before the babies are born (I'm high risk), but I hope not!
