Everyone I know who has taken maternity leave has very much had an obligation to go back afterwards, or pay pack the money paid while they were off.

(In banking they consider a couple of years to be a short time.) B) Get pregnant at age 30 instead, avoid the current restructuring, and if you do hit the job market it'll be in a much better economy. Really? You can't possibly see the benefit of (B)?
