Sorry for my absence today ladies. I didn't go to work today because we had a major snow storm. I was outside shoveling snow for 3.5 hours! I think my ass may have to be amputated. Which wouldn't be a bad thing since I've got a bigger ass than J Lo.

 

[golcarlilly]

Morning ladies, hope everyone is ok today?

Chris - 3.5 hours that must have been some snowstorm!

Nat - OMG not long to go now hun!!!!

I have posted a question in second tri about telling my employer will you all have a read and give me your opinions please - thanks

 

[Chris77]

Hi Tracy

The snowstorm gave us about 10 inches but we have a HUGE driveway and one of the snow plows broke.

I shall pop over to 2nd tri now.

 

[Chris77]

Tracy, I'd just bite the bullet and tell them. Like you said, you can't keep hiding bump.I don't know about the laws in the UK but here in the US, if you're fired b/c of pregnancy that's discrimination and you can sue them. I'm sure they won't just come out and say that that's the reason they're laying you off, but you can also scare them a little and say that it's b/c you're pregnant and you'll file suit with them.

At some point, you're going to have to tell them, so I think it's just better to tell them, IMO. That's what I would do anyway.

Good Luck!

Hi Chris and thanks for the advice, I have confided in a male colleague who has said that he had a long chat with our boss last week and they discussed all the remaining employees and apparently my boss was singing my praises and so he doesn't think I will be in any danger at all if I tell him!! I feel a lot better already just having someone else here who knows!!

 

[Chris77]

Aww that's great news Tracy. I really don't think you have anything to worry about.

 

[Chris77]

I just got my PPD. Since I work at a hospital, I have to get it done every year.

 

[golcarlilly]

What is a PPD?

 

[Chris77]

It's a Tuberculosis skin test. It's used to determine if someone has developed an immune response to the bacterium that causes tuberculosis.

 

[golcarlilly]

OOh is it painful?
