Hi, I need some advice, motivation, reassurance, and just a good pep talk.
As most may know, I've completed my degree and am currently in a postdoc that I despise. For a number of reasons (not entirely relevant to this post) I've decided to reapply for postdocs and do one more year.
Well, I just got some news... Not only was I offered a position that I'd love to accept, but I'm also pregnant (it's still very early and I didn't know this when I was applying or interviewing).
Do I tell the supervisor before I accept or should I just take the job and wait to tell?
For some reason, I'm having an enormous guilt complex about this, and really don't know what to do. It's not like me to end any job/committment early, but I cannot stay at my current position - and I know this is part of my problem/emotional reaction to this whole situation...
Advice, please...
