[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ no one finds out they are pregnant at their doctors appointment. It sounds like you knew you were pregnant, signed up for a short-term disability, delayed your doctors appointment a few weeks and are trying to get sympathy for attempting to game the system. You knew your company did not offer short-term disability. And you got pregnant knowing this and thought you could just sign up before it came to light. I mean it stinks for sure but I also understand the insurance company’s point of view[/quote]

[quote] 8 weeks. I took a pregnancy test on 11/1, but because they go off missed period (October 25) or time of conception (October 10-11), I don't qualify/[/quote]

You clearly know nothing about prenatal care. They won't even see you until you're at least 8 weeks to confirm if you're pregnant, so no, I didn't hold off until then. I'm due July 4th, so both my missed period AND conception were a few days to a few weeks before open enrollment.

There was no way for me to know I was going to be pregnant around the time of open enrollment. Unless open enrollment had been in September, there was no way for me to qualify for short-term disability.
