I recently landed a new job in tech while being over 30 weeks pregnant. Previously, I held a lead/manager role, and my new position is also a lead role, although it comes with a base salary that's about $15,000 lower than my last job. Surprisingly, I'm completely fine with the pay cut because at this point in my life, I prioritize finding a supportive work environment with good people, especially considering my pregnancy. After I signed the offer, I disclosed my pregnancy to the company, and they were completely okay with it, which was a relief. This entire process has been emotionally draining, and there were many moments of uncertainty about how everything would turn out. I'm sharing my experience to offer hope to anyone else who might be pregnant and job searching. There is still hope out there.
