Lost job and pregnant

The title explains it really, I had been at my job 3 months and they decided that they no longer had a budget - very small company, only 3 people work in the office.

I found out the next day I was pregnant, I luckily went back to my old job but can only do 1 day a week due to them having a quite time (private dental care - I am not a dentist, I am sales.) plus working with school hours.

I am not really sure what to do next, will it be awful to get a job while I am pregnant and then explain I am off in June?

I also realised that I am not going to get maternity pay, are there any other options?

Getting a job and then leaving in June is not a bad thing or something you should feel guilty about.

ThanksThanks
