I just found out I'm covered 60% of my salary for 6 weeks with short-term disability. Thank God! I've been saving every penny, and will still do that, but was afraid I'd only be able to afford 8 weeks leave if it was totally unpaid. Now I can do 10-12 for sure.... Yesssssss!

Is the company not big enough for FMLA?
My Ovulation Chart
You can take out a personal STD/LTD policy. I know they offer them through Colonial Life... which is what I had planned to do around now, thinking we'd get pregnant this summer. You have to be on coverage for a year before they will pay out, so I was planning on taking it March 1 then getting pregnant this summer and delivering sometime after March 1 of next year. Didn't quite work out that way... but I'd for sure look into a STD policy!
It is a large company overall but due to this nice sentence in the FMLA provisions, I get excluded since our office on has only 25 employees so I get screwed. (To qualify for the FMLA mandate, a worker must be employed by a business with 50 or more employees within a 75-mile radius of his or her worksite, or a public agency, including schools and state, local, and federal employers (the 50-employee threshold does not apply to public agency employees and local educational agencies).
