Unfortunately, it isn't retroactive, giving Tim 50 more days of free leave!kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00138818343753454140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36234406.post-44247040602153244012009-03-25T12:48:00.000-04:002009-03-25T12:48:00.000-04:00I appreciated your husband's article as well.

My experience as a naval officer having 3 kids while on active duty was: if the Navy wanted you to have a kid, they would've issued you one! With the first one I got 4 weeks off, then they decided to be generous and be more in line with the other services, so I got 6 weeks off with the second one. My third child coincided with my resignation date, so I was able to leave the service after my 6 weeks of convalescent leave.MilitantMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03016804353250316208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36234406.post-48850776916911376512009-03-23T22:35:00.000-04:002009-03-23T22:35:00.000-04:00Congrats on the new baby!
