Most decent jobs will give you SOME maternity or paternity leave.

My wife gets 5 weeks and I get 6, but I was allowed to stretch it to 7 weeks with pre-approval.

    You may be given it, but the problem I was trying to point out is that I think places force you to use all the paid time you have left before you start eating into the maternity/paternity leave, thus rendering OP's post true: you're forced to use your vacation time on medical issues in the US.
