Ok here goes. 19 weeks pregnant, boss does not know and was planning to tell after performance review scheduled next week although my one year anniversary isn't till April. Baby is due late June. I work from home but just saw my boss yesterday....luckily I do not look pregnant. This is pretty rare and last time i saw my boss was last year May. So here's the kicker....the account I'm on is pretty slow. They want to move me to a new account that is only a 3 month project starting in March and my current boss will not be my boss but a new manager I have never worked with. So now I'm totally confused as to when I spill the beans. I was treading lightly and not wanting to tell so soon b/c one I didn't want them to think my pregnancy would affect my performance, and two this is a new company so I don't know how they roll. Since I am virtual I'm not privy to office chatter and gossip. In any case I did hear that they do not offer FMLA for their virtual employees who are outside a 75 mile radius which I feel is 100% wrong because my home is not a place of buisness and the law recognizes that corporate would be my my place of buisness because that is where all my assignments originate. Anyway I'm so confused and don't know when to tell and don't want to seem like I'm hiding something but at the same time I'm trying to protect myself and job. It doesn't seem fair for the new manager to find out a month into the project. Please what should I do.....FTM, and mid career professional.[/quote]
