Re: I am FREAKING OUT -JOB related

Your dr should be able to put you out on disability and if I'm correct they cannot fire you while you are on disability. One of my co-workers was out for most of 2 years on and off because of 2 pregnancies and they couldn't fire her even though they wanted to. Good Luck!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I think I might if it continues. But I need my dr back, shes on vacation and no one else there seems to want to help much.

I am so sorry that the office is not helping. I know that when commuting was an issue I asked Dr. H if I could go out on disability & she met with me to talk about it. Maybe see if you cannot schedule some time when she comes back next week.Chat Icon

I just found out I dont qualify for FMLA Chat Icon Mainly because I was out last march of surgery on short term disability and that was hours "not worked" and I went part time in Sept. I dont have enough worked hours to qualify.

Im gonna lose my job, I know it.

Today was the 13th day I have been out sick since Sept for the throwing up. There is no way they are gonna keep me.

What am I gonna do? How Am I gonna find another job pregnant and throwing up?
Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

01/11/07

did u see the website I sent u?
there is as condition for extreme throwing up..look at the site when u can./.
hugs!

Well I went to work today although I havent eaten yet today. Apparently I still have a job and my ONLY option is NY state disability.

Now, do I do that? Do I do it now and then again when I deliver? I dont know.

the Dr's office is not helping. I called 3 times in hysterics today that I havent held anything but fluids down in now 3 days and the one Dr covering for mine says "see an GI Dr"...Well the GI dr's I called said this is PG related, they wont see me. He then told me thats his only advise( ???????)....so I called AGAIN crying that SOMEONE HAS TO HELP ME ....

The NP explained to me..one that I gained a lb....ONE POUND but apparently that means Im nourished. And that one can live indefinatly on fluids alone. And she is satisfied if I keep down one egg, or one bowl of broth a DAY....Even for 20 more weeks and that the baby will be fine. And I have to just deal somehow with the lethargy that occurs from not eating.

Its like Im losing my mind here. There has to be a better way?

And Im not sure what to do about the disability.

Ok..nto much of an update in the end.

HAD to vent. Thanks for listening , you guys are great! Chat Icon

I am so sorry for you. I went through something similar and i am proof that you can have a healthy baby on only IV fluids and vitamins through IV as well without so much as a pinch of food for almost 5 months. The baby takes what it needs from your body and I think drs and the insurance company know that so you at times meet people who only see you as a "name" and not a person.
I was bedrested almost my whole pregnany because of this and its hard because you are run ragged and filled with nothing buy worry..however the difference is its my doctor who did the calling and the threatening-not me-maybe you need your doc to be more involved if they havent already tried calling on your behalf..or switch meds until one works like I had to.
So sorry you are going through this.

NYS Disability is the pits. You get a max of $170 a week (not looking forward to maternity leave!). If you do end up having to stay home, I know some ladies on another board work for this company answering calls from home:

Good luck!

Ohhh, I'm not sure, I never really looked into signing up. Everyone just talks about it on the Disney board I go on.

True! I know a lot of other states have much better disability programs for pregnant women. I believe in CA they get a max of $840 a week (of course depending on your income). I wish NY (or even the entire US) would get on the ball and offer some better maternity benefits.

Your doctor is not helping? That is the thing that pisses me off the most. You need someone to HEAR your concerns.

HUGS..can you talk to your boss and feel out what they are thinking?
