Family planning (fertility treatments) + startups + FMLA

anonymous·Mar 16, 2020·3 replies
Hi!I'm about to sign a new job offer with a startup, and I asked about their family leave policy. Unsurprisingly, they don't have paid leave, but do offer FMLA after 1 year of employment. I know there has to be other women out there who have pursued their goals while also navigating family planning. What options do we have if we get pregnant before the 1-year employment mark. I think short-term disability can be an option. Any other thoughts? Would love to hear your stories.Add-on question: How have you handled (in)fertility and cost when it isn't covered by insurance?Thank you in advance!!
