Should I be upfront with my supervisor?

I have worked on my L&D floor for 2.5 years. I took a 7 week break and went to another hospital on their LDRP floor closer to my home, but I didn't like it and went back to my current hospital. That was a big mistake.

I do not want to work nights, holidays, weekends, or 12-hour shifts anymore. I want a more balanced home life. I applied to one of our hospital-based offices in the same building I currently work, in the maternal fetal medicine office. Because I left, I have technically only been in my position for 2 months. Some managers will not let you transfer positions until you've been at your current position for 6 months (even though I've been there 2.5 years at this point). Should I be upfront with my supervisor and let her know I applied? She probably won't be happy with me, but she knew nights wasn't my favorite before.

Thank you.

Is there any chance it will change your course of action? If no, then I don't understand the point of your question really.

Not necessarily, it is more of a courtesy than anything else.

If you get offered a position that needs an internal reference, then I would talk to her when you are at that point of a job offer. I feel hearing it from the employee rather than HR is considerate.
