Short Essay 7 Case Study: Baby Kelly’s Parents The case of Baby Kelly began in our Infancy discussions. Baby Kelly was born prematurely to Paige and Jacob. Paige’s maternity leave was up when Kelly was four weeks old. At that time, she made the decision to take a one year of absence from her career in human services. She was apprehensive and fearful that her position would no longer be available at the end of one year, but felt that she had no other choice in order to meet her responsibilities to her vulnerable baby and the rest of her family. Jacob did not have any leave of absence options at his management consulting firm. He used his paternity leave and sick time when Baby Kelly was born. Baby Kelly’s first birthday is fast approaching. He is still prone to colds and respiratory infections that require him to be on some type of medication almost constantly. Paige is still waking up in the middle of the night to Kelly’s crying. She is sleep deprived and longs to have some time alone to relax in peace and quiet and to sleep.
