[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I think you are overthinking this. As somebody who has unexpectedly struggled with infertility, I can tell you that it's not wise to plan your life around TTC because not everything goes as planned. If you want to leave your job and find an acceptable offer elsewhere, then do it. If you are happy in your job and think you can handle staying another 2-3 years, then stay! Even if you conceived tomorrow and accepted the job, then divulged about 3 months later that you're pregnant, I can tell you that most employers are going to work with you regarding maternity leave even if you aren't guaranteed FMLA. It's cheaper for them to offer you unpaid leave for a few mos vs. open source your position again. Unexpected things happen to people all the time - we hired a guy who, a month in, found out he had cancer and was out for the next 6mos on chemo. Life happens and so does pregnancy. Make the career move that is going to make you happiest in the long run.[/quote]
