    When our first came along I took 2 weeks off immediately. 4 weeks would have been great – those first few weeks are very tiring with the broken nights and looking back I don’t think I was really pulling my weight when I first got back to work until things settled down after few weeks (although everyone at work was really cool about it at the time). TBH, I don’t know what I would have done with myself for 13 weeks, I mean, the option sounds nice and family has to come first in your life in many ways, but in all honesty it was good for me to get back to work.

    Yes family comes first, but kids are expensive and taking more than 2 or 3 weeks off is asking to get fired. Having a nice steady income is also putting your family first.
