maternity leave
DH and I are becoming foster parents in hopes of adopting very soon. Has anyone gone through this? Did you take a maternity leave when placed with your first child?

Re: maternity leave
Check with your employer they may have adoption benefits that include leave. You may be eligible for an FMLA leave

Re: maternity leave
My husband and I are adopting our son from China. My employer is giving me 12 weeks off for FMLA. I am entitled to the same benefits as a woman giving birth.
Good luck! :)

Re: maternity leave
My employer gives FMLA leave (12 weeks unpaid) plus I believe 8 weeks paid, plus adoption assistance. Doesnt hurt to ask!
