tell him when you start showing, the more money you can save the better.

u cant get fired bcuz ur preg..but i do agree to wait, just bcuz (not to sound morbid) if u have a miscarriage b4 u get to 12wks or so then u dont want to have to tell them that...and as for telling ur boss when u hit the 12 wks mark, just go ask for a minute in private, and tell him/her straight up that ur 12 wks preg so u will need to have personal the time off/maternity leave once u have ur baby...

Yea i read up on that.. your boss cant fire you because its descrimination and its illegal..so dont worry about that.

I was talking to my boss ( because were really close ) and i was telling him i may be pregnant and if they would have to fire me?

and he said thats he CANT fire me just because i was pregnant even if he wanted to...so im pretty sure thats illegal. but i live in oregon...dont know about where you are...
