Current laws indicate that employers only have to guarantee 12 weeks of unpaid maternity leave for workers that have been employed for at least 90 days with companies that have 50 employees or more. Research your employer’s protocol regarding short-term disability, as well as paid time off policies. You may also have to consider how the pregnancy will affect your finances. The earlier you start these plans the better since pregnancy and delivery can sometimes be unpredictable.
