ok yeah i have 8 weeks in my head for.some reason lol thanks.tho thats helps

My job lets me go for up to 13 weeks. Hoping i only nee 8 at most. I work in Rhode Island and we also get TDI.

I work at a credit union in VA and I believe we get eight weeks of paid maternity leave. I'm waiting as long as I can to take it because I want to spend as much time with my baby girl as possible. I also plan on taking extra time off (using my vacation time) to spend a little extra time with her. Of course I'm gonna save some of my vacation time in case I ever need to stay home with her, but yeah I'm waiting until the very last minute. I'm perfectly fine with going into labor at work hahah.
