NPR: Could use some prayers and hugs! Long Vent.
To add more insult to injury: Most of you know i have been out of work since Feb, and have had an extremely difficult pregnancy. I am not able to return to work until at least 4 weeks after the baby is born. And last year i lost a baby in april at 20 weeks and i had a vaginal delivery then and was out for 5 weeks. Well that was just back ground. i was given the impression that i had until Aug 3rd to return to work, b/c that would be exactly 6 months. And i asked a million times is everyone sure and they said Yes. Well let me just say they were friggin wrong, My boss calls me today and said she got a letter from the leave management board, stating that i had to return to work by June 18th or else i am terminated. My face dropped and i said how can that be, and she said that its calendar year, and they are counting the 5 weeks that i was off from last years miscarriage as part of my time. I am so disgusted and hurt. I have been an RN there for almost 4 years, i did 2 years of horrible nights, i have worked every holiday. All my friends are there. So she gave me 2 numbers to call to see if they can extend my leave, and i was so excited b.c i was going back 3/4 time, so i was going to be home more with the baby. I guess i should be careful what i wish for, so i explained my story and everything to this woman in HR, and she is going to see if we can extend my time. I mean June 18th he might not even be here by then, b.c im not being induced until a week after that. Please just say some prayers that they extend my time. I mean i guess if there is a silver lining , i will be home with the baby alittle more, and will get unemployment, 400 a week compared to my 127.44 disability check i guess lol i dont want that though, I LOVE MY JOB, and have worked very hard there. thanks for listening.

Re: NPR: Could use some prayers and hugs! Long Vent.
your not entitled to fmla?
I had 26 weeks of disability and then 12 fmla weeks ( unpaid) as soon as baby was born.
I hope they made a mistake, doesnt seem "right"

I am so sorry!!!
But that's interesting bc I am in a similar situation i as OP and I was told the 12 weeks of FMLA counts in the 26 weeks of disability. So I am not eligible to take FMLA after my disability runs out. I have been out for 6 months when mid july comes so I am in the same boat. I was told I would be terminated as of July 20th if I dont return.

I am sorry you have to deal with this stress!
I am hearing more and more of incompetent HR departments that say one thing and then do another!
I hope everything works out for you, but remember in every situation there is always a silver lining.

Re: NPR: Could use some prayers and hugs! Long Vent.
I would ask for all of this in writing, including dates and explanations. At my company (and of course every company is different) - after the FMLA runs out, legally we do not HAVE to terminate someone, we can if we choose to, extend their time. It seems odd to me that all of a sudden they are backtracking and bringing up this June date.
