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.

Wells. My boss was quite understanding and cos I was wfh so not too much of a problem and he was kind enough not to let me stay too long for a meeting. I find that generally bosses still hope we meet the kpi despite being pregnant. But it’s important that you prioritise your physical and mental health and don’t strain yourself too much. Perhaps you can try talking to your boss to manage expectations that you might take abit more time to manage your work due to changes in your body but you will try your best.
