Is ur boss understanding or accommodating?

Hi, i am wondering if your boss is understanding and accommodating with regards to you being pregnant. I can't help but feel that the workforce here is nt exactly supportive to us mummies/pregnant mummies. Its my 2nd time pregnant and this time I'm in a different company. Both times, i feel the bosses are not that understanding. After annoucing I'm pregnant, im still being micro managed, given tons of work with tight deadlines. Im not asking for no work but with the not feeling well on n off, mc for check up, i really can't finish the tasks in such a tight time and i am trying to avoid working OT. Im not sure how to let my boss understand without making my performance looks bad. Sometimes i also wonder, Govt wants us to give birth but it's just so hard. Do they know how hard it is and have they provided enough info, educate or help employers so they can prehaps treat pregnant mummies with more understanding? Curious to know if your bosses are like that too.

Thank god for me bosses were understanding for both pregnancy though for the first i took a lot of MC or leave and my manager wasn't happy. But, they knew my first was pretty tough due to short hand n that period of time I had no working partner, till two weeks before I took ML. As for second pregnancy, it was so much worse from MC to HL because of me having AUR during first tri. To then, I decided to drop two weeks notice but my bosses offered other position with being in the back of office instead of FO. Indeed I am lucky my bosses,OM and manager were very good. I took the decision to resign because I wasn't feeling good, it was tough being in out hosp and being in FO. I was allowed to seat down, shared load with colleagues of course still meeting deadlines. I am still workaholic at tt point but I took a handbrake when needed.
