New manager position at 3 months

The beginning of this week I was offered to be an assistant manager. I took the position it’s a $4 pay increase and full time hours. But what my employer doesn’t know is I’m 3 months pregnant lol I’ve known since February and have been waiting for my first appt to tell them. I had no intentions of keeping it a secret to try and get the position. The position wasn’t even open until the beginning of this week.

Wel my first appt is tomorrow and I’m nervous when I finally tell them they’re going to get the wrong idea and get upset. Like I purposely have been keeping it a secret to get into the position or something. I’m friends with my manager and my coworkers we get along great. But I’m really nervous how they’re going to react to me having to be off in 5-6 months. I’m finding that I can’t even be excited about my first ultrasound tomorrow because I’m thinking about telling them the next day.

I’m sure they’ll be happy for me too but maybe a little upset.

I’m also super stressed because I love this job and don’t want to lose the opportunity in a few months after my maternity leave. All the daycares in my area are YEARS long for babies and I have no idea what to do so I can go back to work. I would love to continue my position after my leave but it feels impossible and endlessly stressful trying to find somewhere for a baby to go 5 days a week.

I guess this was more to vent than anything. As you can see I’m super stressed lol. Maybe after telling them things will fall into place lol.

Vent Over 😂
