It's 6 weeks paid and 6 weeks unpaid but excused from your job.

yeah I think I only qualify for the pfl @mrscruz0530

But I believe the fmla is different than the pfl (paid family leave) (bonding)because that is only 6 weeks

Yes you can split it up as you like

Yeah FMLA 12 weeks.

Yeah it's called FMLA or family medical leave act and you get 12. At least that's what California gives for mothers. For fathers it's 6.

@lucyyxoxo_, wait this is just baby bonding? like after you give birth?

@lucyyxoxo_, really? my job told me six. omgh thank you! I'm gonna look into it

@mrzhyde, oh okay thabks

you can break it up within the year & it's 12 weeks not just 6

My husband was able to divide them into two three week periods! But I think you can break them up even more.
