[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a small business and I expect employees to perform the job for which they were hired.  Pregnancy is not an excuse to not do your job.  [/quote]

OP is still getting the work done. She’s just not feeling it is as important as she once thought. That makes complete sense given the major transitions she is experiencing.

Pregnancy is a protected class, and it can be excuse for not doing certain kinds of work. OP is entitled to some reasonable accommodations. As a manager, you should be very careful when dealing with pregnant employees, lest you find yourself accused of discrimination.

Ultimately, managers who are supportive of their pregnant employees will go a long way toward creating a positive workplace environment for everyone.[/quote]

Presumably, OP has a desk job.  There is no reason for her to ask for, or expect, any accommodations to perform the job she was hired to do.  If, in fact, she needs special accomodations, then she better be prepared to present medical proof.  Otherwise, she can ask for unpaid leave.[/quote]

You're not exactly on the right side of the law here. Look up the PWFA. [/quote]

Employers can fire with impunity.[/quote]
