Hello-I am in my first trimester (week 8) and was just curious to hear when each of you told your boss you were expecting? I was thinking of telling my boss around week 10 and then everyone else on my team at 12 weeks. I think you have to give a certain notice period at work prior to expected due date, but I'm not quite sure when that is.
Re: Announcing pregnancy to boss
I told REALLY early, like maybe 7 weeks, but he also know I did IVF. I told my teammates around 9 weeks and everyone else at work after 13 weeks

I believe I read at some point that our policy is to at least give 90 days notice prior to your expected leave date which makes sense so that they can have time to cover my work while I am out.

I told my boss at 9 weeks. He was excited for me. Asked (to make sure) if I'm planning on coming back... but more in a joking way so they don't need to worry about replacing me. He couldn't wait to tell his wife.
Side note - I was nervous before this, so I'm glad it went the way it did. I recently took a new position with my company and didn't know how they would take it.
Good luck!
