[quote=Anonymous]I went through this years ago. I got the offer and was planning to accept. It was for a job that included overseeing the organization's big annual meeting, which would take place a month after I was due. I called up the CEO (who would be my supervisor) and basically said, "I'm pregnant, here's when I'm due. I'm planning on taking 12 weeks of maternity leave and do not expect it to be paid. I will plan on being on-site for the upcoming meeting, assuming I do not have any complications. I would like your assurance that this is acceptable, and if you anticipate any issues with the timing of this, I will decline the offer with no hard feelings." They were completely fine with it and I was paid for the on-site time worked, along with some additional work I did while at home. Fortunately, it was my second child and was pretty confident I would be in good enough shape to make the trip for a few days and I was.[/quote]
