Hi! I’m a FTM and my partner and I are expecting in a month now! I plan to take all of my leave immediately (12 weeks PFL plus 6 weeks disability) but we’re trying to figure out how much time my partner should take off the bat. We plan on him saving a good chunk of his as in the fall I will be going back to school and working part time so he can take a couple days a week to be home with our son. I’m just wondering when everyone felt ready to be alone during the postpartum period? We were thinking he takes 2 weeks and then saves the remaining 10 (he can use it at any point, by the day, during the first year of our son’s life). Is 2 weeks enough?
