Okay. I've asked and read questions about maternity leave and have finally decided for sure not to go back to the job I love. I'd love not having to take my baby to child care more, though. Someone said that I will owe if I take my whole leave and then resign and I don't intend on paying my employer, so here is the question:

My 12 week Medical Family Leave began on October 10.
I will inform my boss and employer of my plans to not return on Wednesday, December 6.
My day due back was going to be January 2 -- that's 12 weeks.
I used up my vacation and sick time about 10 days ago so now my leave is unpaid. Help me figure out this math as according to what someone here on answers stated, I will owe them for I think 2 weeks at this point. Sorry if I have confused you along with myself.

THANKS!!

Short version: I took Maternity/Family Medical Leave from October 10, 2006 - January 2, 2006. If I'm not returning, how much do I owe? Or will I owe at all?

My husband and I already have an 11mth old baby. We always at least used condoms when having sex, but this has been the second time that we haven't used them. This happened after having my period. Is there a chance that I could be pregnant, and if so, are my probabilities high??? I know we should have used protection, but its too late now. advice please.

I had a baby almost 7 weeks ago. Friday I went to the doctor and started the Nuva Ring. So I was wondering how long does it take before it becomes effective?

If a couple opted to have a baby using the man's sperm and the woman's egg, but decided to use a surrogate carrier (ie a different woman to bear the fetus), than whose name goes on the birth certificate as the mother? The original woman whose egg contains the genetic makeup of the child, or the woman who housed the fetus for nine months and actually gives birth to it.
THANKS!

i heard sleeping flat on the back was bad because they may gag on their spit-up, and that on their stomach they may suffocate, so what would be a good position?

I've been married 3 years and I'm 26 and my husband is 31. I've been very vocal about not having children, and then kind of on the fence, and then vocal again. But I think about having them a lot and I'm envious when others get pregnant. I have come to accept that I do want a child. My husband changed his mind first, so he'll be thrilled. However, we disagree on how to go about it. We're very financially stable. We live off one income and do very well. But house prices are such that we couldn't afford one within an hour of his work without an income 3x his. My earning potential is very small, so that won't make the difference. He thinks we should save even more until we can afford a home here, no matter how long that takes. I think he should either commute more than an hour to where we can afford something or transfer jobs to a less expensive area. He thinks this is unfair. I'm wondering just how committed he is, considering how he's been pressing for a future baby. Advice?

Help! Mother in law is making it hard to look forward to the holidays!?
My huband and I were recently married in September of this year. We have been together for 6 years. My mother in law is all of a sudden making a big deal about the holidays. For instance she wanted us to go to her house this year for Thanksgiving and go to my moms next year.My husband told her this wasn't going to work because we want to be with both sides for the holidays. I offered to do Thanksgiving at my house so that we could all be toghether and she wouldn't have to feel that the holidays are a big rush. She refused my offer. So I thought we agreed on splitting the holiday we would go to her house at 11am and have appitizers with her. Her dinner was in the middile of the day and this year was our year to have dinner with my parents because last year we only got to spend a few hours at my moms. The night before Thanksgiving my MIL called my husband to discuss Thanksgiving and he must have told her agian about how our day was planned we would show up at 11 have appitizers and spend

time with them and then leave at 4 to make diner at my mothers house. She was doing dinner at 5. My mother in law blew up. Don't even bother coming I can't believe your not eating here you do everything with her family. Blaah Blahh Blahh. She said not even to bother to come come next year to her house only so she can get her full Thanksgiving. Which I refuse to do and she doesn't respect that. She then said that we always run out on her to get to my moms which is untrue we were spending most of the day with her. The next year we would eat our main meal with her. She was so upset she hung up on him and he was so upset at her that we didn't go. They didn't talk for a week and when they did he opologized for not being there and she was still feeling the same way and said that . everything was about me and my mother. That is also untrue we tried working it out with her. 1. I offered to do thanksgiving so that nobody was torn away. 2. I my mom doesn't care about the time you do dinner but

if you could do your thanksgiving at lunch time or dinner time everything would work out alot better. She likes to have hers smack dab in the middle of the day. I don't know what to do about her she is starting to cause problems between me and my husband and he doesn't want me to say anything to her. She can't respect us as a married couple she wants everything her way. I am starting to really dislike her. What do I do. She also says that discussing the holidays is between her and my husband. That really pissed me off and I would really like to confront her on that. I feel like the main issue is is that she feels she has lost all control I think she is really jelous of my mother and what she has done for me and my husband. I know this seems really long and not put together well but its really upseting me and I have gotten good responses on here other times

What were the differences between your first, second, and so on pregnancies? Did you feel better or worse? What was the most difficult part of being pregnant again?

Nowadays is not easy to bring up a big family... do you think it's better to just have an only child or to have more than one?? I'm an only child myself and lots of times I wish I had a brother or a sister. Therefore I would really like to have more that one kid myself... but do you think it is a smart thing to do??

Hi

I just want some reasssurance please.

My husband and I have decided that next year we want to start a family, of which I'm really excited about.

However, when we started out dating (about 7 years ago), I fell pregnant and had an abortion. It was the most painful experience of my life, not just physically but emotionally as well.

The lady who performed it did it in such a way as to make me feel that I deserved to be punished. I wasn't given any pain medication and on the table I almost passed out from the pain. When it was over I asked her if it was finished to which she replied Yes, Take a look. And she showed my what she had sucked out.

I am not looking for anyone to judge me and I am not scared of becoming pregnant again. I am scared of the actual birth, of being in a room again with strange people working "down there".

Has anyone else been through this before who can give me some advice on how to deal with my fears?

Two possible fathers. I want to give the baby up for adoption, but one of the possible fathers, if it is his, wants to keep the baby. I believe the father has just as mush say in the decision as I do. So what do I do? I have nothing. No place to live, no money, etc. I cannot give the baby up for adoption if it is one of the fathers baby. I hafe been honest to father. The other possible father wants nothing to do with me or baby. What should I do, without betraying the possible father who wants to keep the baby if it is his baby?

For a Christian, the birth of Christ is an event that can be celebrated every day of the year, and many say it should be. For a non-Christian it should make absolutely no difference. Christmas has become a fantastic commercial success, but has it been oversold?

If we decided to change the way we celebrate Christmas is that even possible?

If we were to change it how would you suggest we change it?

Interested in knowing what you think.
