Following the previous post. I found out I was pregnant two weeks after I signed my offer. If everything goes well, my delivery will be 7 months into my new role. When is a good time to tell my boss? Thanks! I already know that because it would be less than a year when I deliver, I won’t qualify for the additional 6 weeks of parental leave.

I would wait a pretty long time so you can establish credibility in your role first - like 16-20 weeks.

I agree. I was in the same boat and announced after 20 weeks scan.

I would wait until 12 weeks to announce when the risk of miscarriage is lower.

I’m in the same position but have hyperemesis gravidarum. I’m on medication and feeling a bit better but might have to share sooner than later if that should change. You’re also not eligible for FMLA because you have to be employed for a year for that. I’ll probably tell right at 12 weeks if not a little before.

Take it from someone who told work at 12 weeks twice and both times had terrible things happen - please wait until your 20 week anatomy scan. ❤️ they technically don’t have to be informed until 30 days before your intended leave.

Sorry hear that. Big hug!
