What PwC1 said. Also, Montreal and Quebec City are fantastic and not a terrible drive if you want to go even for an extended weekend.

If the weather is nice, cape May in south jersey is pretty nice

Thanks for the suggestions Newport, Portland Montreal /Quebec are fantastic options. We have been to these places and most of the other tourist spots in the north east except Martha's Vineyard / Cape Cod and Nantucket. Not sure if these are good options. Ideally want to go to a restore like place where we could relax and unwind with natural scenery (mountains or sea). Go for a nice stroll along the beach (may be lake too) and is away from the city. If you have specific hotels in mind please share as well. Could burn some SPG points....but not solely looking for Starwood/Marriott hotels.

If scenery and quiet is what you're looking for, check out Winvian. Miles of trails and conservation land and lakes and each cottage is unique. It's pricey-ish but that's subjective. Makes a memorable babymoon.

Btw it's in CT. So quick drive for you.

I highly recommend Martha’s Vineyard. Was there last year on a long road trip with family. Went to cape ann, Gloucester, Martha’s Vineyard, Kennebunkport, Ogunquit New Hampshire. Was one of my favorite trips. All those port towns are beautiful. Amazing trip.

Thanks for all the suggestions!!

Seems like FB ate my text when I included a link. Oh well. Snowvillage Inn (NH, 2h from BOS) is having a stay one night get one free special for May. Love the other suggestions, too!

Misled on Maternity Leave Policy. I found out I only get 4 weeks pay for maternity leave (STD +“sick days”). I will take 12 weeks but wont get paid for 8 weeks. I work for a US, west coast based company in the tech/VC industry. Their website claims to offer “paid parental leave and other progressive benefits for parents”. I didn’t find out until after I was hired their pay was only 8 weeks but since I have been at the company less than 12 months, I don’t qualify for their policy. Is this unfair?
