Hey moms! Just curious if you and your significant other argue/have fights about how much the other parent is doing/ time with the baby. I am currently on maternity leave until the beginning of April right now. My husband was only on paternity leave for two weeks. He is back at work. He is gone from 8 to 5, then trains people at the gym after and then he works out himself. He usually doesnโt get home until like 830-9. And he works a different job Saturday 8-5. I have talked with him about maybe cutting back on his side jobs to spend more time with the baby and helping me but he just does not seem to get it. And when I asked him to do a couple night feedings last night he got upset because he needed sleep because he had to work. He says Iโm on maternity leave and thatโs what I am supposed to do. I get it but just feeling a little burnt out and am dealing with PPD I was not sure if anybody else experienced this Or how you split things up.

Paternity leave 3 days
When a child is born or adopted, every father is entitled to 3 days of paternity leave granted by his employer.
- It is also called birth leave.
- The duration of this leave remains fixed at 3 days, even if you are the proud father of twins or triplets or if you adopt several children.
- This right concerns any employee, without seniority condition.
- If you and your spouse are not married, he or she can also take advantage of these 3 days.
- A simple formality is enough to obtain it: inform the employer by letter.

Maternity leave for us in California starts 4 weeks before your due date and once baby is born you get 12 weeks from that day. Your doctor can always place you on leave earlier before the 4 weeks if your pregnancy is high risk. I work from home and I plan to work until that 4 weeks before due date.

I may take short term disability with my maternity leave. Even though I work from home my hands are acting up and requiring braces on both. I'm currently 18 weeks.
