Should I tell employers that I’m pregnant during job interviews?

I’m only in my 2nd month so it’s not visibly evident that I’m expecting but I don’t want it to be an issue if I get hired.

No not if your only 2 months.

I agree with Mariah, don't disclose it until long after your 90 days at least. Many employers won't want to risk an injury and/or the risk hiring someone who they assume may have to frequently take time off. This is an assumption of course but unfortunately but I have sat in meeting where it was said.

Great question, Dorothy! I think it's a personal choice for a lot of women, but I wouldn't reveal it during an interview; in fact, I'd probably wait for a few more months until it's absolutely necessary to tell my employer. What does everyone else think?
