Morning sickness and work

I went back to work in January after a year off with my first baby. I’m now pregnant again, around 7 weeks.
Morning sickness is really kicking in and I’m struggling to focus.
I’m so nervous to tell work I’m pregnant again, I feel like I’ve only just got back into the swing of things and I don’t want them to think I’m taking the piss.
Has anyone been in the same situation? I haven’t told my manager yet, and I’m not sure whether to tell them sooner rather than later. My job is desk based, generally with lots of calls throughout the day.
Thanks!

Hi @Mightaswellstayawakenow Congratulations
I went back to work on April after a years maternity leave and got pregnant the same month. I managed to hold off on telling my manager until I was 8 weeks. He was ok about, laughed quite a lot!!
He may have been annoyed but he can't show it as it would be discriminatory.
I felt better once I had told him as I was having bad morning sickness too and at least he knew I was not just being lazy.
