Maternity leave is a great thing — it allows for baby bonding, mama care time, and should be a priority for healthy families.
Sadly maternity leave in the U.S lags far, far behind many other countries. Most places offer more time off, time with pay off, and plenty of family leave (so you don’t give up sick or vacation time for maternity leave).
Can you even afford to take maternity leave in the U.S.? Maybe, if you plan ahead.
Here are some tips.

My book How to Afford Time Off with Your Baby (Vermilion Sept 2009) is all about ways, to help financially when you have a young baby whether you take off 6 months or 6 years. It has 101 tips and ideas to ease the financial strain from pre-pregnancy to pre-school. It can be pre-ordered now on Amazon and is born out of my experiences as a full time mum on a very restricted budget.
Good luck with your maternity leave and take care, Becky x
