so while talking to my boss about something concerning co-worker he asked me after a very long meeting if he could ask what my medical issue was. he said I have a guess, but if you don't want to talk about it we don't have to. and I said its a quite personal female issue and he asked if it was infertility.
he went on to tell me about one of my coworkers that dealt with it for years and ended up adopting. he also said that he supported me 110% and that when I get pregnant they'll be very flexible with me and my schedule and can work from home or part time or whatever I want.
so..not what I was planning on sharing today, but it turned out to not be a terrible thing.
Re: so work knows about my infertility
its my boss, owner of the company and a male.
He and I had been in a very long meeting discussing concerning another co-worker so it had been a long and very open/frank conversation and so I think he felt that was an OK time to ask.
he did give me the chance to say that I didn't want to discuss it and I let him continue on with his questioning.
