Im too scared to tell my boss im pregnant

I was in the same position about a month ago. I'm also a temp so the accrual of holiday pay during ML & keeping the job open do not necessarily apply.
I ended up telling my boss after worrying about it for WEEKS thinking he was going to sack me (/say the business doesn't need me any more). I took a horrible phone call and walked away from my desk to calm down and he came and found me to check I was okay. I just came out and told him - he said congratulations, checked with his boss and confirmed that nothing would happen between now and my ML starting - which I now have in writing.
It's a scary, scary thing - especially as a temp. But if they guess that you're pregnant they could let you go without reprisal. If you tell them you're pregnant they'll be less likely to let you go just incase!My Debt Free Diary
