As I prepare mentally to get back into the workforce middle of next month after a break of what would be over 6 months, I hesitate. The prospect of going back to work was always there, but just locking in on a date makes it become more real and imminent. Cold feet.
But as I look at going back to work after an elected, unpaid time off, here's something for comparison: In Norway, they have 8 months of 100% paid maternity leave, with an option of extending by 6 months with 80% pay. If that feels like an anomaly then Sweden has 436 days of combined maternity and paternity leave.
