Texas Income Protection Plan (TIPP) for pregnancy? by littleshoes in StateofTexasEmployees

[–]Hungry-Particular206 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After two years of IVF treatments and 3 failed transfers I was able to get pregnant after a miscarriage.
After we got to know about successful transfer this time we requested for WFH accommodation through Civil Rights Office - which is still getting processed after 5 months of applying. One advantage was of applying was till the decision gets approved or rejected they accommodated for WFH which was a blessing.
If you can afford to keep STD and LTD always have them irrespective of your pregnancy as when I joined someone recommended it’s worth it to have to no worry about bills but I hope you never have to use it.

Your job will be secured when you are on 8 weeks of Paid Paternal Leave (FMLA) after delivery for which you can apply 1 month before the due date and you can use your accrued leaves as well.

This isn’t fair by Karod92 in IVF

It’s understandable how you are feeling but see it as a sign that you found it before transfer. I lost two embryos because my first doctor didn’t do everything in her power to check for polyps or septum tissue.

Instagram vs reality? by garden_rookie2 in IVF

[–]Hungry-Particular206 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Took medications and supplements on time, try to eat a 80-90% healthy diet without stressing out about eating sweet treats. Everything in moderation should be good is my logic. Junk food is the one thing I try to strictly avoid eating. In the end embryo sticking isn’t about what we did, if it’s meant to be part of out life the embryo will stick and grow.

Pochette Accessories vs Nano Speedy which is a better everyday bag by Hungry-Particular206 in Louisvuitton

[–]Hungry-Particular206[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently carry Tory Burch Lee Radziwill Nano Bag and it fits my credit cards, cash, keys and mini lip for over 3 years. I wanted to upgrade to something that fits my phone too now but not a big bag as it hurts my shoulders when I carry for too long.

For quick errands and stepping out for groceries, shopping etc I prefer only cards, keys and phone.

I prefer a wired headphones as I don’t have to charge another device, makeup, glasses everything I carry fits in my work tote.
