Separating after childbirth—please help

You know the AFI that gives you 12 months time to decided after having a baby if you can balance military and parenting life? How does that stop women from taking their 12 weeks maternity leave and then separating literally right after? I’m not trying to take advantage of the system but I just know I won’t be able to handle work and a newborn. Any advice is appreciated.
