I was laid off at 26 weeks pregnant at my software engineering job that I’ve been at for 4 years now. Completely shocked and didn’t expect it at all. It’s been hell job hunting and I’ve sent out 115 applications and had only 2 places reach out for an interview. The first one didn’t work out because of my timeline, and I just got the email for this one after getting to the second interview that they’ve chosen someone else.

I feel so defeated and lost. I tried so hard to set up a position after my baby is born so I don’t have to stress. I give birth in 3 weeks now and I just wasn’t able to do it. Now I’m looking at job hunting while having a newborn.. does anyone out there have any advice? I’ve applied everywhere Lockheed, GitHub, Booz Allen, Amazon, google, even smaller companies as well. I’ve heard nothing back? I don’t know what else to do.

Thanks everyone!
