How do I say: I am on parental leave


Something like?

今育児休業(いくじきゅうぎょう)です。




I think you can say

> 今、[育児休業中]{いくじきゅうぎょうちゅう} / [育児休暇中]{いくじきゅうかちゅう}です。  
>  今、[育休]{いくきゅう}で休んでます。  
>

for "I'm on paternal leave" (In Japan, normally starting 8 weeks after the
birth of the child and ending by the time when the child turns one year old...
I think), and

> 今、[産休中]{さんきゅうちゅう}です。  
>  今、産休で休んでます。  
>

for "I'm on maternity leave" (In Japan, normally for 6 weeks before and 8
weeks after the birth of the child... I think).
