i'm just curious. i work in a physicians office and they have been known to push people out while they are on maternity leave. i know its not exactly legal but they do it and no one says anything. they have pushed out physicians, nurses, and front desk employees. i'm not even pregnant yet and i'm worried whether i will have a place there after i do have a baby. how crazy is that--i'm stressing out about it wayyy tooooo early!

i'm not even telling anyone there that we are having fertility testing done because i have no idea how they would react and i don't want to put my job on the line....

how does your place of employment react to maternity leave/you having to take days off for testing/procedures/etc.....

mine won't be thrilled because they will have to find coverage while i'm gone, but there's nothing they can do about it.

The College that I work at seems very good about maternity leave. The position that I have now is flexible and totally something that I can do from home, so once I have a baby, I'll be able to log onto my computer from home and do my thing. Plus, if needed, my MIL works in the same department and can transport paperwork for me! I'm pretty lucky.
