DH had his meeting today. He asked for 6 weeks right away, and then another chunk when I go back. His boss was suuuuper nice. She said he didn't have to pin things down right away, could take a wait-and-see. She was also really excited for us, which he didn't expect and was so kind.
That's awesome! I think you guys have a great plan. It's so refreshing to see bosses who are genuinely excited too!
I think MH would irritate me if he stayed home for more than a month. But that's just me. I had 12 weeks off and I enjoyed my alone time with DS, even though I was overwhelmed being a FTM and all. Looking back it was great, though. MH was only off for a week. 2 or 3 weeks would have been great. If I lived in an ideal world, I would prefer MH to work less hours a week and do stuff like walk the dog, grocery shop, clean, and make dinner. I have the baby handled.
