Re: Pregnany
Depends on your workplace's policies. Be sure to check on whether your employer requires you to bring in a doctor's note at any time. You can use FMLA time only if you are eligible, but you have to specifically request it and you are limited to 12 weeks of unpaid leave a year (or paid via sick/vacation days if your employer allows it), and you might want to save the FMLA leave time for your maternity leave instead.
