Does her employer offer or does she have some type of short term disability coverage.

When my wife was pregnant she did not.....but her employer told her STD would pay her in event of pregnancy. They are right....I called the STD provider to be sure.

So she signed up for STD when she went back to work in anticipation of child #2 at some point in the distant future.

Yeah but you cannot be pregnant when you sign up for STD. I think you have to have had it for at least a year before it will cover pregnancy. Better check with her employer's STD provider to make sure.
