Looking for a bit of advice, currently 7weeks +2days and not sure when to tell school. My last pregnancy ended in December after my 12 week scan however I had told school when I was about 6 weeks because of morning sickness being bad. School were very supportive and through my time off during my miscarriage and after.
However, things in my department have since changed and I'm concerned about telling them early in case I have another mmc, being given a worse timetable next year because I'll be on Maternity at some point in November, possibility of them them not being fully supportive because of all the time off I've had this year because of the pregnancy and mmc and worried what they'll think of me getting pregnant so quickly after mmc (actual miscarriage happened in Jan).
Reasons I want to tell are for the risk assessment, this was done straight away last time and really helped with some behaviour situations. Is it possible to tell just HR and the head or do I have to tell my line manager and head of department too if I tell them? As I'd prefer to avoid telling my department until as late as possible and initially wanted to share after my 20week scan
