Leave Without Pay

[MarzV]

I'm planning on working up until I have my baby..the only problem is, that I don't have enough hours to get paid during my leave. I only get 6 weeks and I have roughly 3 weeks of time. I'm due June 17th, but I think she might be here a little earlier. Me and my husband can't afford for me to go on any leave without pay..what should I do?

Thanks ladies! I'll be sure to save up. I'm sure we'll make it. I'm probably just stressing too hard on it.

I am working up until my due date, husband and me are also savings a bit every paycheck..like 1 pay check (each) goes to bills, and another paycheck (2 since we both work right now) we put it away for baby arrival...im taking 2 months off we have a house so every month for our bills were looking at about 1200 including our mortgage

I've saved up. I don't get any pay what so ever. I'm working until a week before my due date!

I gave my husband 2 months rent from my taxes. He got a second job. And family is going to help us. Plus I get family assistance and going to apply for WIC soon.

Umm start saving up, apply for temporary assistance Or maybe your husband can work more hrs or 2 jobs?!?

We don't qualify for any kind of assistance & I don't work so we save up $50-100 every paycheck it doesn't seem like much but it adds up quickly!
We just started saving in Nov because my husband lost one of his 2 jobs.

Good Luck;)
