Especially since u work with people they will probably talk to u about your baby once u show.

How far along are you? I wouldnt take it personally. Hearing about babies probably makes her want to completely break down.,she should be professional about t but im sure it hard. If i were you i would try to just not memtion it around her as much as possible, but once u get big if u arent now it will probably be hard to avoid and she will be forced to deal with jt

As your supervisor she should be professional at work. I understand it must be heartbreaking for her, but unfortunately you are going to have to mention your pregnancy to her. She will need to be informed of any time you need to take off for appointments and will also need to sort out cover for when you take leave. Hopefully she comes around and is able to keep her personal feelings out of this. If not and she treats you unfairly then you will have to report her to a more senior member of staff. Her refusing to acknowledge your pregnancy could put you and baby in danger

Well we work in these peoples homes and she was supposed to be training me I didnt say it to her but to my client I do feel bad for her

If it were me I would try understand her view point on the whole baby thing. I don't know if I could handle losing a baby like that. I am sure she is trying to cope with her loss but being around pregnant women isn't her cup of tea at this point. She knows that your are pregnant and I am sure she probably wishes she was too but it is to hard in her emotionally to think about. Just give her space and time to adjust and things will be fine.

Wow. I understand but shes upset but thats not fair to take it out on you. You deserve to be happy about your baby and she's bringing you down. Sorry you feel like that but it really isn't fair and she needs to be a little more supportive and professional
