Job hunting - what do I tell prospective employers?

[mountainlover]

I'm still on maternity leave and looking for a new job. Any thoughts on whether I need to tell prospective employers that I'm on maternity leave at the moment?

I know discrimination is technically illegal, but I'm concerned that a new company may not want to take someone on who may go off and have another baby before too long...

Thanks

You don't need to tell them but on the other hand it seems unlikely that it wouldn't come up naturally - if you're talking in an interview about previous work experience and you haven't been at work for months it might be difficult to hide the fact.
