DH had a month off with our first, second time round he had only 2 days off So it was hit the ground running, luckily our 2nd bubba is such a relaxed baby, very cruisy. Our 1st however does not sit still all day so she keeps me on my toes!

DS1, DH took a couple of days while I was in labour/on bed rest and then 2 weeks off after DS came home from hospital at 10 days old.

DS2 he saved up nearly all his leave last year so that he could use it after DS2 was born (or earlier if I ended up on bed rest again). He had 2 weeks off after DS arrived mid October, mostly to look after DS1 TBH, and then I'm pretty sure he hasn't worked a 5 day week between then and now. This will be his first full week back at work

DH took one week off work which was fine I then had my mum come around for a week and then my MIL for another week so I had 3 weeks help in the end and was fine when they finally left me to it!!

With DD DH had two weeks off but ended up being slightly longer as he had to go inot work a few days of that.

Ds was born whilst he was off over Christmas and I think I had him for 3 weeks after DS was born.

DD was born on the Sunday of labour weekend (quite appropriate really!), so DH just had the Monday public holiday off and back to work the next day. There was nothing he could do for me anyway, I preffered him to be earning us money as we own an extremely demanding company. He just came home at about 3pm each day for a week or so.
