Hey yall!
Ive been a partner for almost a year and im currently 30 weeks pregnant. Pregnancy has been really hard for me. Ive already had to cut my hours down to 21, and get accommodations for pregnancy. And im now to the point where even that isnt enough. Its getting harder to move, bend, reach things, and breathe lol. Even my manager has commented on how slow i am now.
So i was wondering if i can finish this month, take a Loa for june, and start my maternity leave in july when my due date is. I want to try to save all my maternity leave for my birth and postpartum. Or can i take a loa after maternity leave? I just need some time off of work now since its getting almost impossible to work, and will need my maternity leave for as much postpartum as i can.
Also do i still have my health insurance during a loa? Thats currently paying for all my doctor visits lol.
Thanks yall!
