if you have a doctors note & fmla with restrictions, your job has to honor it. i would contact your job regarding their process for being out on fmla with certain restrictions, and that way you could still work also. at my workplace, you have to find reasonable accomodations so i had associates who couldn’t stand for long periods of time, but once they got their paperwork, i was able to allow them to use a chair and to not be scheduled to get carts/go outside (i work in a grocery store though).
@Kassie I have, it helps a little. I’m gonna be in contact with her tomorrow for my appointment
@Kaja I’m gonna ask my doctor for a note tmrw. But I am worried that they won’t honor it as they haven’t for other women in the past
If they don’t honor your doctors note, you can tell HR and whoever writes you up/fires you despite having a note will get in a lot of trouble.
If it comes to it you could always take early maternity leave if you talk to your midwife they might be able to help with that
Have u tried a hot water bottle to ease the pain a little ? I would also contact ur midwife just to see what advice she might have for u
