I just found out that FMLA won't kick in for me until August, when I will have been with my employer for a year - this must have been in the fine print - even my supervisor had forgotten this. I think I'm pregnant already. They have this policy at work where you can only have 6 occurences of being absent, and then you're out the door, unless you're on FMLA. My supervisors will work with me as much as they can - they are very understanding, but I'm so worried I'll have to go on disability so that I don't lose my job due to absences. Last time I dragged myself to work w/ zofran in hand - hope I can do it again. And now, w/ this job my medication co-pays are going to be so much higher. The job that I have is working so well for us now - I work opposite shifts from my husband so that Matthew can be with us as much as possible. I need to work b/c I hold the health insurance for the family. And we just bought a new house.
I'm going to purchase a fan and air purifier for my cubicle, bring in lots of beverages, and sterilize my work area. Beyond that, I guess I have to brace myself and hope that I can function enough to work.
I wish all I had to worry about was what color to paint the baby's room...
