[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am currently expecting this fall (not "out" at work yet) and was informally offered a position in a different department at my workplace. If I accept, I will be in this position for about 5 months before I go on maternity leave (12 weeks). I will return back to work after the 12 weeks. I am having the formal discussions with the manager and HR representative next week and am not sure how to handle the news of my pregnancy. Should I bring it up next week during discussions or after I formally accept or after I start the new position in a month?[/quote]

None of their business.  I started my new job in March and had my baby in June.  This was a position in a new agency.      I went out on leave for 3 months and the last month I gradually started working from home a few days a week before coming back into the office.

I think I eventually told my new supervisor that I was pregnant sometime after I started working.  I didn't show really until the last month-but, because they never saw me before many people didn't know that  I was "gone" for 3 months because I gave birth.
