I'm not sure what to do I had to leave the job I loved because I gave up my rented house because my ex begged me to move in with him. I moved in with him he turned out to be controlling and abusive we eventually got into an awful fight and the neighbours rang the police as I was screaming get of me. Anyway this meant I had to leave my job and move back in with my mum 120 miles away, I just started a new job on the 16th I was in training for the first three weeks they told us they've took on to many people so they had to get rid of 14. So here I am again jobless and honestly I'm just fed up not enjoying my pregnancy because I'm constantly worry about getting a new job. I'm a proper career girl love working so this isn't like me. Do I just go get a crappy job in a shop or something until baby is due? I can't really afford not to work but I'm just getting fed up now and having to go through the whole process of not telling them I'm pregnant.

You can't afford to not work, so there's your answer. It's not the best timing but you've got months before the baby comes and then you'd get some form of maternity pay.

Congratulations on your pregnancy!
