[milena_woking]

I am about 6weeks pregnant and am thinking when i should tell my boss about it..
I am working as an receptionist in large hotel and have to stand on my feet for over 8hours a day
and now im finding it really hard as Im getting tired verry easy.. Don't know what to do..

I've waited until the first scan (13 weeks). Legally you have to tell them by the 15th week before your due date, everything else is a matter of choice. I know it's hard with the tiredness, but it will get better

oh i really hope it will get better ..
have just finish work and am almost dead now
goodnight everyone

You can tell them in confidence. They won't do a risk assessment and get you a chair and things until they know.

Echoed, I just told my line manger so she could get on with a risk assessment especially in relation to the environment that I work in (I teach in a mental health unit). So you can still keep it private but with the lovely chair to help you out....!
