How much time

Are you planning on taking when the baby is born? My job allows us to take up to 6 months although only 6-8 weeks are paid. How much time is everyone planning on taking off?

Re: How much time

3 weeks paid
Then I can take any vaca/sick time

Not sure how STD works, but I can take that too. I think that is paid by the company, but I have to double check. I think its 6-10 weeks depending on vag birth or csection.

(shhh then I plan on finding a new job while on leave).

I plan on taking 12 weeks.

Re: How much time

6-8 weeks STD (depending on type of delivery)

Taking my vacation time after that... probably 3 weeks.

Then the rest of the time up to 12 weeks total will be unpaid. I am thinking I will have either 1-3 weeks of unpaid time, the rest will be paid.

3 months total... definitely not enough time, but there are bills to pay!

Re: How much time

I am taking 12 weeks and only 6 of them will be paid. If I had a choice I'd take the entire second semester off...but the NYCDOE might not be so understanding.

I am taking at least one year off from work. 6 of the weeks will be paid. The NYCDOE allows you to take up to 4 years off without pay.

Assuming a vaginal birth - 18 weeks (6 weeks paid).

Hopefully, I won't have to take any (maybe just a few days to a week) before the baby is born.
