Hi everyone. I just got a job offer for new graduates in OR at a trauma level 1 hospital in Ohio. I will start the program very soon. According to the recruiter, the program lasts 3 months, but to the nurse manager, it will last a year. I guess that after 3 months studying in classroom, I will work with a preceptor in OR for the rest of 9 months. However, I just found out that I am pregnant with my first child (I will go to see a doctor to confirm, but I guess it is just a few weeks). I am currently taking classes to get a BSN, and I will finish it next May. What should I do? Should I let the nurse manager know about my pregnancy, and ask her if I can stay in the program until the day I give birth (April or May 2016), or should I ask her if I can start the program after giving birth. I really do not want to lose this opportunity, as well as health benefit for the baby and me. I already submitted my resignation at a nursing home where I have worked for 10 months. I do not want to work there during my pregnancy since the workload is heavy, and the new psych unit is handful. Please advise. Thank you so much.
