I am on a fixed term 6 month contract with only a weeks notice period. I have been told they intend to renew the contract and make it permanent when I was hired...they said it was fixed term as its a new role (sales/business development) and they needed to see how it works out.
I am now pregnant. I will be 21 weeks when the contract is due to end.
Obviously I want them to renew. There is no way I will be able to get a new job while 5 months pregnant.
So, how to I tell them? When do I tell them? At first I thought it best not to say anything and hope they renew, then tell them. However my belly is already pushing out and I am not sure that is possible. I also don't want to seem like I am tricking them.
But if I tell and they don't renew....how could I prove it was because I was pregnant?
Plus I am terrified at how angry they will be considering I have only just started there and the client relationships I form (in sales) are quite important.
