[quote=Anonymous]I would absolutely not tell a boss. Unless there are complications and assuming you work 9-5ish, there should be no reason to take a day off until the day of the egg retrieval and the day of the transfer, especially if you're WFH. Most monitoring appointments are 7-9a. While the day of the egg retrieval is up in the air until the last minute, you'll have two days notice. The downside of letting a boss in is that you don't know how long this process will take and I found that I didn't want follow-up questions. Employers aren't required to keep your personal information private and could mention something (accidentally or not) to others. I didn't want coworkers wondering what my reproductive status. If you have to disclose something, say you have a few medical appointments coming up and assure them that it's not life threatening. It's hard to put the genie back in the bottle once you spill about IVF.[/quote]
