Stressed - pregnant and looking for job ...

Hi
Am facing a bit of a dilema and just need some reassurance I think!
I was made redundant in September - just as I fell pregnant. I'm now looking hard for a new job, but so far no luck.
I hate feeling as if I'm being dishonest somehow at interview stage by not announcing it, but it's only 12 weeks and not even all my friends and family know yet! I know that I don't legally have to tell a future employer I'm pregnant until 25 weeks or so, but it's stressing me out so much that I think it's probably best to look for temp work instead. I've had a really good, solid career up until now and it's a big adjustment to be not only made redundant and looking for a new job, but doing so whilst suffering with morning sickness is no fun!
Any advice, tips, reassurance would be appreciated ...
:rolleyes:
