When do you tell new boss you're pregnant?

Question

I know I've posted something similar to this before but I have no clue what to do. Today was my third day at my new job and so far I love it! But at the same time I feel like I'm carrying around this burden not telling my new boss I'm pregnant. I'm currently 5 weeks and 4 days. My first ultrasound is 9/29. Should I wait til then to say something?

Answer

told mine this morning and he then shrugged and asked me for more milk and his show along with an apple. my boss:

Answer

I am in the exact same boat! I'm going to wait til after 12 weeks.

Answer

Def wait till after first trimester if you can.

Answer

I am a correctional officer so I had to tell mine immediately especially since I am high risk and will have to go on light duty. But am trying to wait to tell everyone else.

Answer

I told my boss at 6 1/2 weeks. I have a good relationship with her and I truly felt like it was something she should know. Especially if something were to happen or if I get horrible morning sickness she would be worried about me. She hugged me and was over the moon excited!  She is keeping it to herself for now. I'm not sure when I will tell my co-workers, I'm thinking around 12 weeks.

Answer

I work in childcare and one of the new procedures for work was to update any immunizations that needed updating and I couldn't get any of them till after I have the baby. My boss then asked if I had my signed medical sheet and so I had to tell her the reason why I couldn't get any done. I'm 7 weeks and told her this week but she was really supportive (I've also been with the company for almost 3 years). The only thing that sucks is I found out because I do before and after school (part time) I don't get Mat leave but can still get EI. I guess that's still good then

Answer

Depends how demanding and risky your job is.

I HAD to tell my patient  (I'm a nurse) because of a technicality

Answer

I wanted to wait but ended up telling today at about 6 weeks. I'm a middle school teacher and figured if something happened during the work day- someone should know. I also had to take a sick day this week because wasn't feeling well so I wanted to explain and give my principal the heads up

Answer

I don't plan on telling my boss (I've been there a year) till I'm showing. And I mean really showing. I can hide it under scrubs so I'm not too worried. If it's a new job, I would wait till you're off your probation period because they can fire you. They won't say it's because you're pregnant, but they may find something else to use as the reason.

Answer

Same dilemma. :(
