意外怀孕需要告诉老板吗

I have been in my current position (for which I was headhunted) for just over three months and have had excellent feedback. But I am now 12 weeks pregnant. I want to raise my profile and gain managerial support without pregnancy clouding the issue. My plan, therefore, is to wait a couple of months before telling colleagues. Is this realistic? Should I refrain from asking for professional investment (conferences, committee memberships) now if I know I will be asking for maternity leave later?

我现在这份工作（猎头找到了我）才做了三个月，获得了很高的评价，但现在我已怀孕12周了。我希望提升自己的形象，获得管理层的支持，而不被怀孕拖后腿。因此，我的计划是先等几个月再告知同事。这种想法是否现实？既然我知道自己过不了多久就会提出休产假的要求，现在我是否不应要求他们对我进行职业方面的投资（参加会议、委员会的成员资格等）？

Lucy’s advice

露西的建议

From the wording of your question I get the impression you feel guilty about being pregnant. Stop it at once. You won’t be “asking” for maternity leave. You will be getting it because it is your right. As Sheryl Sandberg has told the world: the women who don’t dare move jobs just because they might want to start a family soon are those whose careers tend to get bogged down forever.
