Did you take any time off work for IVF

Question

Answer

My job is full time work from home due to covid so I’m only going to take off the day of my retrieval and transfer. I have a desk job so I don’t really have to do anything physical to work.

Answer

Only on retrieval and transfer.

Answer

I took a week of vacation for retrieval and transfer

Answer

I’m WFH until my retrieval surgery is over. I work in a design studio where I am constantly lifting boxes/furniture so told my boss what was going on. It’s definitely helped a lot to at least be able to be comfortable at home during this process and has taken a lot of stress off my plate.

Answer

I only took off the day of retrieval. Went back the next day with no issues. Pain was manageable with Tylenol. Transfer fell on a Sunday, so I didn’t have any conflict with work.

Answer

I just quit my job and am purposely starting my next one after I’m done with egg retrieval (4-6wks later). Primarily to reduce stress around the process, but also to not worry about getting behind with all the appointments.

Answer

I did but that’s because I work in a automotive manufacturing plant on an assembly line and once my ovaries were big and fluid filled I was too uncomfortable and worried about torsion.
