California has paid maternity leave too, at 55% of your pay up to a certain amount that's more than I make. Since Squiddle was a C-section, I got 8 weeks of pregnancy disability followed by 6 weeks of Paid Family Leave, but since my employer would only hold my job for 12 weeks, I was only able to take the first 4 weeks of the latter. I'm not sure what other US states offer.
