Spinoff from the Pregnancy Board (of all places)...

How many days of work have you missed because of IF treatments or IF related problems?

Luckily (or unluckily) for me, I am not working at the time. So it has worked out. But, not sure how much longer I could afford in being unemployed.

I guess I should answer my own question. Chat Icon

I would say that this year alone I've missed between 6-8 days for IF related issues.

Whether it was a scheduling issue with my RE, or just feeling crappy from the drugs or procedures.

Luckily I never had to take a day. I was always able to get an appointment after work, or right before lunch so I just modified my lunch time and maybe worked a little later. For sono's and bloodwork I just show up for, I'd get there at 7:30, be out by 8:30 and just add some time onto the end of my day.

Furniture deliveries are another story...like 10 days this year for those idiots....

My office has been super understanding and allows me to work from home when I need to
So far though its probably about 10 days (including this IVF) 3 - 4 from teh surgery, 3 for each IVF

Not to mention the failed IUIs last year

Probably around 6 days. Quite a few latenesses for monitoring before IVF.

Six days total. Many of them were half days and I had a couple of procedures done on vacation days. My entire IVF was over the summer.

I was really pi$$ed when I got my annual review. Never before did they ever make reference to how many days I took but at the bottom it says...
"Mrs. X has been absent a total of 6 days for the 2005-2006 school year". They are legally not allowed to qualify that with anything else, according to my union and I spoke to my principal months before about this.

Well... I just got the results of my students' performance on the World History AP Exam...
80% got a score of 3 or better and 65% got a score of 4 guaranteeing them college credit...

That is way ABOVE the national average and I can guarantee you that not one other teacher on my faculty had those results. (YAY ME!!!)

I'm stapling the results to my signed copy of my annual review with a letter explaining my absences and reminding them of my excellent AP resultsChat Icon Chat Icon
