Early Pregnancy Disability Leave...? Posted: 07-04-07 19:20pm
I'm 8 weeks pregnant, and I have morning,
noon, & night sickness ALL the time.
I'm physically throwing up 8-12 times per
day, with little pre-warning. With both
of my last pregnancies, I endured this ALL
9 months! It did not end after the first
trimester. I almost lost my job, for the
amount of work I missed during my other 2
pregnancies.
I have seen my OB/GYN regarding the
constant nausea and throwing up. Can I
get CA State Disability, for this
condition? Will/should my doctor be
willing to certify the SDI form for
Disability Benefits. My doctor in the
past put me on disability for the last 3-4
weeks of pregnancy. Any advice will be
greatly appreciated, especially if any
other woman has been able to successfully
receive SDI while in the first trimester
of pregnancy.
