Best Answer

Being pregnant by itself does not constitute a disability.

If you suffer from one or more complications of pregnancy and your doctor orders you to stay home from work, then short term disability will cover that disability.

If your occupation has many physical demands, and your healthy pregnancy prevents you from performing your job duties, then short term disability may pay a benefit. Check your policy for specific language.
