When did your dr put you on bed rest and why???
When did you start maternity leave and how long are you on maternity leave????
@maybabyboy, what if I'm out on bed rest early in my pregnancy. I know I'd have to do fmla for that, but couldn't hat be considered maternity leave?
under FMLA you can take up to 12 weeks off without losing your job. but they don't have to pay you at all, so you will want to think of that. some employers will give you longer leave, which is cool. I'm going to be taking 8 weeks off, that is what I chose.
kinda I can take up to 6 weeks and if I had a csection I could take up to 8
@jasminemaye, did you have a choice of how long you are going to be out.
@greenlandnichole, does your job give you the choice of how long to take off?
you get up to 12 weeks of fmla every year as long as you have been with the company for at least a year. further details than that you would need to look up the law and ask your hr department. part of the reason why I'm only taking 8 weeks instead of 12 is because I want to leave some time in case I have to take leave for something else.
