Can I be sacked while pregnant

Have been signed off work for foreseeable. Am 12 weeks pregnant and mental health very poor. Am I at risk of being sacked even though I am pregnant? Have been at current job less than a year.

hellsBells46 no absenteeism prior to pregnancy.

In that case, if being off is related to your pregnancy, no, you can't be sacked for that.

This might be helpful: maternityaction.org.uk/advice/pregnancy-discrimination/#:~:text=You%20are%20protected%20against%20discrimination,is%20pregnancy%20or%20miscarriage%2Drelated.
