I work as an hourly paid teacher so I need all the hours I can get. I had a MC in april and told my boss who was really off with me about it so I told her not to worry about the coming year as I wouldn't be getting pregnant. I felt pressured to do this as I need my job or I'll lose my house etc.
So I got pregnant immediately after my MC.
My boss (although I don't really like her as such, but we get on OK), came to my hen night, etc. I said I was on antibiotics.
Now I am due to start my job again in Septemeber, I've said I'd like as many hours as poss etc.
I haven't told them I am pregnant or that I'm due end of Feb.
I feel guilty but I need my job to survive and provide for my family- and as I am just a contractor, they would have got rid of me this september rather than have me back again.
When will I need to go on maternity leave? When should I tell them I'm pregnant? How should I go about it?
