You might want to start before your due date if you have a complication with your pregnancy, need to be on bed rest or something like that, but keep in mind that you have only 12 weeks of FMLA so if you take a few weeks before the baby's arrival you will have less time with the baby once the baby is there.
For example, if an employee took a 12-week FMLA leave beginning April 1, 2012, the next time the employee would be eligible for FMLA leave is April 1, 2013. Spouses/partners who are both employed by the Institute are allowed a combined total of 12 weeks of leave within a 12-month period for the care of a newborn.
