I'm having a baby: how much leave do I get?

Each parent has nineteen weeks of contract suspension for birth; in single-parent families, thirty-two.

How many weeks

Nineteen for each parent; thirty-two if there is only one.

«suspenderá el contrato de trabajo de la madre biológica y el del progenitor distinto de la madre biológica durante diecinueve semanas.»
