When should I tell my employer I’m pregnant?

Don’t rush …. 

 

🤰If your pregnancy is progressing without complications and you don’t need any accommodations early on – don’t rush to tell. 

 

Wait until at least end of the first trimester or longer before sharing the news. 

 

 If you are experiencing complications, especially if you feel that they will impact your ability to do your work – tell your employer as soon as possible.

 

 Before your speak to your employer:

1.Read the handbook

2.Google state and city laws regarding pregnancy protection and FMLA.

3.Research … research … research 

 

When speaking to your employer keep the meeting short and sweet!
