DH took annual leave, and with the way his roster works, he ended up with a month off. We had to leave enough annual leave hours for when they shutdown over christmas, and then it turned out they didn't need so many hours, so he could've had another week or two off. In the year leading upto DS' birth, he also took time off for my lap (2 weeks i think?) and for us to travel for our EPU and transfer (think it was a week and a half) so he didn't have much time left over.
But, a months leave, I'm not complaining!

He just put in for his A/L as soon as we had a c/s date. he didn't tell too many people that I was pregnant either. One of his workmates only found out about 2-3 months before my due date lol.

Think DH has been at his job for 4, going on 5 years now?
