We are left with such a tough choice. If I have a second one, I think I'm going to stay home for a while so I hope the internet would offer me something to make money until I decide to go back to work.

I had no idea that mat leave in the Phils was so short!<BR/><BR/>I thought that here in Canada, all women get a full 12 months for maternity leave. I've discovered that isn't the case for all women here. I think some of it depends on your job and whether you are permanent/part-time/full-time, etc. <BR/><BR/>My SIL works for the government and when she was pregnant with her first, she was only in a temporary position. She only got 8 months, which she shared with my brother. She took the first 4 months and he took the last 4. Now that she's pregnant with the twins, she is full-time permanent and has the whole 12 months for mat leave.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593290192293739137.post-79102589917450581232008-09-12T02:36:00.000+08:002008-09-12T02:36:00.000+08:00There are a lot of women here in the U.S. that get...There are a lot of women here in the U.S. that get 6 weeks off after a baby is born and that's it.<BR/><BR/>Something needs to be changed here too.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979925607834752536noreply@blogger.com
