Have you got a new job while pregnant?

I'm 20 weeks at the moment and dp is currently off work sick, so money isn't great at the moment.
I have started to apply for jobs for myself to take the pressure off us financially until he is better. Has anyone else done this when they are so far along? Should I tell potential employers before they give me the job or hide it and and then inform them after they have given me the job? I feel tempted to do the latter.
What would you do?

You should tell them you are expecting at the interveiw i think. Just be prepard some companys probably won't want to employ someone pregnant as you'd only be there a few months then be on maternity leave and possibly not go back x

They might not want to but they'd be breaking employment laws if they used pregnancy as a reason not to hire you.

A friend of mine went for a job interview with a visible pregnancy bump, didn't mention it and got the job.

Don't bother telling them. If they then don't want to employ you it isn't for a discriminatory reason.
