Re: How long are you planning to stay at home?
I'm brand new with the DOE and I'm not sure if I am qualified for FMLA, since I haven't been there full time for a year (however I have worked part time for over a year).
If anyoe knows anything about FMLA feel free to help me out!! 
I'm due in April and was counting on taking the rest of the year off, but if I don't get the FMLA I have no clue what I will do!
I would love to NEVER go back!

12 weeks, wish it could be more, but I can barely afford that.
Same here...it might even be more like 8 weeks for me

Re: How long are you planning to stay at home?
I am planning to take the maximum that I can, which is 12 weeks (FMLA). Although, I work in a school, and with all the holidays, and school breaks, it ends up being more like 15 weeks or so. It was the same with my first maternity leave too.

Re: How long are you planning to stay at home?
The plan was 6 mos but I got put on bedrest 2 months early so I'm still thinking about it.
Although I won't have insurance or $$, I am allowed up to 12mos child care leave.

Re: How long are you planning to stay at home?
I'll be taking 1 year of maternity leave from my FT job. I'll start working from home after 3 months of leave from my 2nd part-time job.
Then after 1 year, when I go back to my regular FT job, I'm changing over to a PT schedule.
