I'm 17 weeks pregnant and I'm an agent for people in the arts. I have extremely close working relationships with those I represent. The relationships I have are essentially my own and no one else works with them. My boss has told me I can not tell them until I have a suitable replacement for my maternity leave ( a job which has been left down to me). My boss also wants to meet the new person but is only in the country for 2 weeks ( he's on sabbatical). I'm feeling more and more uncomfortable not telling my clients as we have a high level of trust. I have to cancel appointments and not attend important events as my bump is now clearly on show. My clients are starting to get annoyed I feel like it's also my personal reputation at stake and now many of the people I look after would feel more comfortable knowing the situation in full. Any thoughts on this or has any one else been in a similar situation where they were unable to tell clients knowing it will do more harm than good?
