I accepted my dream job a couple of weeks ago and have signed the contract, etc. I’m now serving my notice period. I may be able to bring my start date forward, but otherwise that’s all moving along fine.

However, I’m pregnant and need/want to share with the new employer soon, before I start. I’ll be in position for three months at best before I’m due. It’s a quite senior position at a well regarded but smaller (<1k employees) tech company.

Any advice? How can I do this without causing too much commotion? What should I expect in terms of leave? I won’t be taking a long leave but what’s reasonable? I’ve mostly been liaising with recruiter, should I ask to speak to HR?
