Well, I assume your employer is using an attorney for your change of status from H4 to H1. You need to spell out your travel intentions to the attorney AND the starting date of you H1B. Your attorney can either apply: 1. change of status (COS) OR 2. notify the consulate in your home country. With the COS, I believe you need to be in the country until it is approved, or else they may consider that you abandoned the petition. Not sure check with your attorney. With notifying your consulate option, you don't have problem leaving the country in the interim but you will still be on H4 when you return until/unless you get it stamped before you can start working. Again timing is the key in your case, combined with other factors like your primary's status etc. Keeping your attorney in the loop in the key!
