I had an interview today for a great company that I would love to work for, they loved me and I could tell were very interested! At one point in the interview they asked if I would be taking any vacations or anything that would cause scheduling problems and I said no, not realizing until after I walked out the door that this was when they were probably expecting me to tell them I'm preggo! I'm 6.5 months along, and showing, but I wore a satin flowy blouse, so it may have looked like I could just possibly be a little over weight lol

Anyhow, I've never searched for a job while already being pregnant, when am I supposed to tell them? It just didn't feel right to blurt it out during the interview, I want a fair shot at the job! But I also don't want to feel as if I'm lying... I was thinking of saying something when/if they extend a job offer. What do I say?

My girlfriend says I should call them back and tell them that I forgot to mention during the interview that I was preggo. What do you think?
 
Yeah, tell them after. If they hire you then try to take it back when you say you're pregnant, they can get in serious trouble for being prejudiced and discriminatory.
