How & when (how many weeks) did you tell your work you were pregnant?

The day after I found out - I had taken the day off sick for a "tummy bug" which turned out to be bubba.

I work in a reasonably high risk situation, so made sense for close colleagues to know. I told the boss first, and gave her a moment to digest it. Then told other close colleagues, we were a permanent team of about 6. Told the rest of the workplace at 19 weeks, when I also submitted my letter of resignation (I don't want to go back to my permanent position, as it won't suit, so was best for both parties that I make that choice.)

I work in admin for local government so my work isn't really a problem except for a bit of stress and me having baby brain. We are always short staffed so I know it will put a strain oneveryone else, but all I can think of since being PG is 'Bring on maternity leave'.

Yes I have pretty good maternity leave entitlements in my contract so thats not a problem. I think its the fact that I had my scan this time at an earlier date than what I mc'd at last time and my next scan wont be untill after I tell my work so theres always that niggle of what if I tell them and then I loose this one too?? But thats something I just have to work out I guess, coz I don't think I can keep this pg to myself untill Im 20 weeks .

I work in Admin but also travelled once a month for a week at a time into the gas & oil fields so told my boss at 6 weeks as bit of a precaution and a few office friends a couple of weeks later, the rest found out as I slowly outgrew my clothes My boss was really good about it and always kept a careful eye on me lol

I kept travelling up until 36 weeks and finished work at 37 weeks, not sure what I'm going to do once my maternity leave runs out.
