FMLA

I just had a meeting with my HR person about maternity leave. Apparently, you have to be employed for 12 months to be eligible, but she doesn't think I'll have trouble since I worked 2+ months as a temp last summer. I was worried about it for a second since I'm due Oct 23 and my year anniversary at this job is Nov 11. Now I just need to make sure that I don't have to have bed rest before going into labor!

Another bonus about being at Duke is that I take 3 weeks of vacation/sick time, and Duke pays an additional 3 weeks. That's still a lot of time that's unpaid, but I wasn't aware of the extra paid 3 weeks at all so it's just a bonus!
