Hi, I am a final year resident will be graduating in June 2021. My boards are in Feb first week 2021. I have one year of fellowship from July 2021 to June 2022 and then will be my first job. By then I will be 37 yr old.
I am planning for a second pregnancy. Currently have a super active one year old.
I am deciding on when to get pregnant whether to get pregnant and deliver if possible before graduation from residency ( June 2021) so I can use FMLA. But I would be 5months pregnant during boards exam ( if everything worked out fine and I get pregnant as planned). Worried abt risking my board exam especially if I have any complications with my pregnancy.
Other option is to try to get pregnant during second half of one year fellowship and possibly deliver in the first few months of my first job.
I am thinking to join as a faculty in my residency program ( I have been offered a job but haven’t gave my final word).
Third option: Deliver in between fellowship ( 1yr) but won’t get FMLA as that would be different institution with less than 12 months at that place
Need advice. TIA.
