Since I told my partner that I'm pregnant, his behavior has changed. Could this be a sign that I will soon be fired? I have never received a bad review. My review is average though.

Document, document, document. Even if you just send emails to yourself about his behavior, keep a record of what he's doing and how things have changed. Pull your counselor in if you can.

That's totally fucked if true. Ask him everything via email so you make a paper trail. You should not be penalized for being human.

No way they can fire you if you are pregnant. I believe you are protected by law

Maybe he’s just being weird because he’s not sure how to act around you knowing you’re pregnant. Not that being pregnant should change his behavior but that may be the reason

If they do fire you that will be a nice lawsuit and you will get big payout. Honestly I think the partner is just looking out for himself. He doesn't want you to pick up a project and only get halfway through, then have to scramble to reassign it to get it finished. Also if you get the new client there is a possibility that you won't be able to service them right away, creating more work for him in your absence. He's being lazy / selfish.

How did the behavior change?

For instance, I told him abt the possibility of having a lunch with a potential client but seemed uninterested. I also volunteered to do project which I was not originally scheduled to work on, but he was reluctant to let me work on it. All these things happened around the same time.

maybe you get more sensitive ? Just my thought cause I did become so much more sensitive when i was pregnant

@Manager 1, how would I know if I'm fired for being pregnant? I'm just wondering if I can be fired for no cause even though I haven't received any bad review in my four years in PA.

I told my partner as soon as I knew that I was pregnant. His behavior changed - for the better. But then again it helps that we've been together for a few years now 😀

OP they cannot fire you while being pregnant that too without any bad reviews

Partner as in partner or do you mean partner, partner? I hate when people say "my partner" as oppose to "the partner"

I find myself questioning basic politeness I’ve learned since a child. Wondering what everyone else thinks. I work with an associate. She’s great. When she does good work or something I’ve asked her to do, I, of course, say “thank you!” I don’t really expect a response. She always replies “you’re welcome!” Or some variation. And for some reason, that’s awkward. Is it just me? I know in normal manners, that is the right response. Why does it sit funny?
