Looking for a job while prego

posted 22nd Jul
I'm just wondering how many people out there have had to look for a job while they were prego and if they had any luck. Iam scared the company I work for may be going out of busniess and I don't think anyone would hire me because I am prego. Anyone ever been in this situation??

I had to quit my job while I was pregnant because of the LONG hours standing all the time and carrying heavy stuff. I applied at one place and I swear I didn't get hired because I was pregnant, but she said I didn't have enough experience. Well why the hell give me an interview my application explained my experience.

You can try temp agencies that's the only luck I had and got sent to a call center it was easy but BORING I quit after a month couldn't stand it.

I tried for a couple months to get a job, and had no luck, But I was already in my third trimester and obviously showing.

I tried for months and nothing. I live in Az too and had horrible luck, but if you know anyone with connections to companies that could help a lot.

I actually was left jobless at around 4 months pregnant with my second child (first daughter). Luckily I was able to find a job. I wasn't really showing and never mentioned being pregnant.

I got my job thru a staffing agency. You don't have to tell a potential employer that you are pg unless the job would be hazardous to the baby's health. Nobody knew I was pg until I was 23ish weeks and that's only b/c my DH said something to them! I could honestly still hide it at this point (I'm 25 weeks today) but I'm glad people know b/c they cut me a little slack and it's not as bad when I'm trying to make my dr appts.

Yeah, I've been thinking a temp place would probably be my best bet. Hopefully things will work out, but it is scary since my husband just got laid off last week.
