Question for mom/dAds in California? How long was maternity leave? And what options are there for dads for leave

depends whether you have the baby normal or not

My husband got 6 weeks, one week was the waiting period.

6 weeks for us, it is called Paid Family Leave act and you can apply online to qualify! You get paid a percentage of your paycheck for those 6 weeks so it helps a lot, and both mama and dad can apply
