Thanks MM!
XJT was great about it.
I spoke with my Chief Pilot in IAH and he even directed me as to how to properly apply for FMLA. He even personal dropped one of my trips this week while I was awaiting the "approval" from our FMLA administrators, since we didn't have childcare lined up and I needed to be home.
Didn't feel anything "weird" from them... everyone I've dealt with has been great. Of course, it could have to do with the fact that we have TONS of reserve pilots!
