i got a job!

Yay. Initially i told them i was 7 months pregnant when i turned in my app. The lady was rude and wouldn't interview me because she "didn't have the time". Then outta nowhere another lady calls me two days later for an interview and i got the job. The other lady that seen my pregnant belly and turned me away was fired for other reasons.... Wow talk about karma! But now I'm kinda feeling guilty because i don't think the new lady knows I'm pregnant. I didn't mention it because i thought they had already told her.. :( don't know if i should tell her on my first day which is Monday.

When I had my phone interview I told the person over the phone that I would be late for training a few days for prenatal visits. I still received the call back and when I went in for the face to face interview I didn't mention it. I'm sure she put it in her notes. But I got the job. The only thing that makes me nervous is the training is 14-16 weeks. And I have 15 weeks left in my pregnacy. I'm hoping that I make it through the majority of training.

I would tell them soonish but in a subtle way. Because of health and safety.  As they need to do risk assessments and things like that and if you needed extra breaks they will understand better. And in case you went into labour while working they'll be prepared :)

Haha i thought about that. Im just really honest which is why i told them when i turned in my app even tho i didn't have to by law. But i have the job now officially so they can't do anything about it. I just don't want them to feel like i tricked them or something.

I would tell them! They can't really sack you for just being pregnant or wait a week or two and act like u thought they knew,  say something like 'gosh this babies kicking alot' .
