Yes, all pregnant service members are entitled to pregnancy leave for maternity care and childbirth. This includes both ordinary leave and special pregnancy-related leave provisions to ensure proper medical care and family support.

If you need extended leave beyond your accrued time, you may request unpaid leave of absence or use advanced leave. Your command will work with you to accommodate medical requirements and family needs during pregnancy and recovery.

For chargeable leave (ordinary, advanced), you receive full military pay. For special pregnancy leave provisions, pay may vary based on the type of leave and circumstances. Consult with your personnel office for specific details about your situation.

Full medical benefits continue during pregnancy leave, including prenatal care, delivery, and postpartum care. TRICARE provides comprehensive coverage for all pregnancy-related medical needs for service members and their families.
