I mentioned it to my department manager. He was amazing. Actually, he had asked me that year what I wanted for Xmas. I told him there was only one thing I wanted, a baby. Just 3 months later, we brought our new baby home.
We found out about our new son on a Friday. I called my boss over the weekend and told him the news. We were to bring our baby home on Monday.
I started my leave immediately. I only had 10 weeks paid leave, but took a few extra unpaid weeks.
Now here in Canada, adoptive parents can get 8 months paid with an additional 4 unpaid. Even that is not enough. LOL
Good luck....
