I’m currently almost 16 weeks pregnant (FTM) and just so excited for this journey at 39! About a month ago, a job was posted on a team that works adjacent to my current position. I help out that team regularly during events throughout the year. I’ve been hoping a position would open up on that team for a while and so when the job posted I applied immediately. I was still not quite comfortable with my pregnancy at that time and didn’t think much of it. I now have a final interview for the position and I’m kind of freaking out. The position is more event focused than my current position and would require some nights and weekend work and a lot of our events will ramp up in the fall which is right when I’m due. I’m just feeling kind of bad about possibly taking this job when I know I’ll be out for a couple months during a very busy time. I’m planning on going back to work after maternity leave but I’m also wondering if I’ll feel the same excitement for these events once I’m a mom. I know I’m just jumping ahead without even knowing if I have the position but I think my anxiety is just getting the best of me. Has anyone else been in this type of situation?? I’m not planning on disclosing my pregnancy until after they offer the job and all that but still just feeling bad about withholding that information.
