I can’t work out if I’m just being hormonal and irrational, or if I have a right to feel a bit disappointed.
I’ve worked for my employer for 8 years now. I let them know I was pregnant at 14 weeks, am currently 22 weeks.
Ever since I have made my team aware, I can feel myself being pushed out. My manager no longer chats to me. I’m left out of important conversations and email chains. My potential maternity replacement is being lauded as fantastic (which they are) whilst I feel holes are being picked in my performance for the first time. I have a performance review next week which has been set up to make performing well difficult for me (I can’t give much more detail here without outing myself)
AIBU to feel this way? Or is this fair, since I’ll be going on maternity soon? Or, indeed, is this all in my head, and I’m hyper sensitive at the moment without being completely aware of it?
Thanks for taking the time to read!
