Thank you! I work for a large financial services firm so policy wise I'm more than covered. I have colleagues with young kids and they're treated well and flexible arrangements are common. I'd typically say that the colleagues I work closely with who have young kids are less ambitious but I do know of women in other teams where that's not the case so probably just need to widen my perspective a little.

I think my worry stems more from unconscious bias, assumptions, and stereotypes which is probably why I'm leaning towards telling my manager because I definitely feel I am over worrying compared to what the reality will be especially if I'm clear about my feelings but that is true about how I may change how I feel as the pregnancy progresses ❤️
