The doctor is "excusing" her from work but not completing paperwork for FMLA? This is an example of a doctor that does not understand the FMLA. Your daughter does not need to be completley disabled to qualify. She simply has to have a serious medical condition (she qualifies if, because she is high risk preg) she cannot perform all her job duties or cannot work her full schedule. Perhaps your daughter should see a new doctor.
