Sould I mention IVF in a job interview?

[dandelion]

I have a job interview on Thursday for an afterschool/vacation care position.
It is only casual and mostly for relief work, more work on school holidays though.
Should I tell that Im going through IVF and could be pregnant soon or that I may not always be available when called upon for shifts as I may have appointments that day? Or is it really none of their business? I just don't want to stuff anyone around....at the moment Im not working and just finishing my studies so I haven't had to worry about this.

Do you think its ok to start a new job in this area while doing IVF....Im a little worried that it could cause stress on the baby if I were to fall pregnant... Im probably being over cautious and thinking too far ahead lol

Im actually really nervous, I wonder what questions they'll ask me? It's been awhile since Ive gone for an interview! Was very surprised when I got the call this afternoon as it was months ago I put in my resume!

Anyway thank u in advance xxx

I wouldn't mention it.

Do not mention it. It's no ones business. It can take a long time to get pregnant and you don't want to put your life on hold waiting for it to happen when it might take years. Not trying to be negative, just seen many others think it will happen first go and 2 years later they're still trying.

Nope, don't mention it at all. It's your business and as said, IVF can take ages so it could potentially be awhile before you need the time off. When you do need to take time off, most IVF clinics will give you dr's certificates for the time you need off, so you could just say its a medical issue and leave it at that.
