I'm still on leave but it's now unpaid. I just wasn't ready to go back and we decided we could make it 4 more weeks. After that I have to return.

Back at work, and have been for over a month now. Hard to believe it's passing so fast!

I took a leave of absence to extend my leave - I go back to work on July 9.

My job didn't have benefits so I just quit. I could have had unpaid maternity leave, but i stopped working at 8 months pregnant. I was teaching preschool and it got to difficult. They would hire me back if I wanted to go back, but right now I have the ability to stay at home. I went last week to visit the kids and show them dd, it was sweet and I miss them a lot!

I've been back since 2/25 (he was almost 7 weeks)

I am currently trying to get a reduced schedule (from 77 hrs/2 weeks to 65) but it's not working too well since my next check will be for 105 hours! I am a pharmacist and I don't have a permanent partner yet (mine left almost a year ago! This is why I had to come back from leave before I wanted to); when I get one I'm pushing for the reduced schedule!

I'm supposed to be back at work right now... But my daughter does not feel the same way. She won't take a bottle, we have tried different bottles and such, the only thing we haven't tried is having me completely out of the house. On Friday I'm hoping for a date with my hubby and my sister will watch DD and that'll be a trial period for her. I'm going to re-fill out the application at work today or tomorrow. Yay.

went back to work the week ending 3/31. I thought I'd be sad, but I'm loving it. Only thing that makes me sad now is that there are some days I don't see my LO except when I wake him up to feed him.

I went back to work when DS was 6 weeks. I hate every second of being away.

I go back 2 weeks from today.

I go back this Friday, and it's killing me. My husband will watch him 2 days a week and my mom will watch him the other three. I laid up in bed last night worrying that while my mom is taking him places they'd get in a car accident and I'd lose LO. I know I'm having irrational fears, but it's the honest truth. I'm terrified that something will happen to him while I am not with him, or just happen in general. Ugh.

I went back April 5th and so far so good!

I was on leave until the very last day of my STD which is the day I quit and I never ended up going back so now I am a SAHM.
