re: Job Offer and time off - newborn health issues

Yes absolutely. The employer should appreciate you being up front and if he's ok with accomodating your time off needs for the baby, chances are he'll be a good boss to work for. On the flip side, you'd be starting off on the wrong foot if you took the job then dropped the news that you needed extended amount of time off right after you started and you were already aware of it.

Best of luck with the little one
