I get 8 sick days and 2 personal days (which I can use as sick days) for a total of 10 days. I only have 2 days left.

I took one official one for when DS's temp spiked to 103.5 and the dr was contmeplating having us go to the ER. But I had to take two when my DH got caught working overtime and I couldn't get to work because someone had to be home with DS. Worked for me. Total of 3.

Re: Working Moms--How many sick days?

I was on maternity leave so I took all 10 days that I rolled over.. but since I came back I've taken 2 sick days. I earn one a month and I have 3 in the bank right now.

I'm already trying to save up sick and vacation time for my next pregnancy. Hopefully I can save up at least as much as I did this time..

I do not get paid for time taken off but I have probably taken at least 10 so far. Probably more. That's what happens when you loose interest in your jobChat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Working Moms--How many sick days?

I have used almost all of mine already, which is rare for me. Most have been due to DD.

Re: Working Moms--How many sick days?

I can work from home but it is hard to put in 8 hours when you are caring for a sick child. when mikayla had coxsackie I was home with her for 4 days and took 2 sick days

Re: Working Moms--How many sick days?

I've taken 6 since January and they have all been for when DS was sick, not me. When I don't feel well, I just work from home.
