When did you inform your company that you are expecting?

Hi! May i know when is a good time to share with your company that you are pregnant? Is it after first trimester? I have worked in current company for 2 years and this is my second pregnancy. First one was with a different company and this will be my rainbow baby so i am very careful this time. Also, is it normal if some days i feel light cramps and some days i don't feel cramps at all? I felt like i'm overthinking by not feeling the cramps all day long 🫣

I informed my boss within the week as I work in the medical field and don’t want exposure to harsh activity or radiation. I will suggest informing boss as soon as you know, in case you have to take leave or sick leave. Informing your close co-workers is good as technically you spend most of the day at work, and they can look out for you. I felt light cramps my entire first trimester. It’s the kind when I would think my menses is coming, so it worried me so much. Honestly, would prefer not feeling the cramps. Don’t worry too much ya. May everything go smoothly
