Pregnant & not working

any mummies quitted their job at the start of their pregnancy and find it hard to join back the workforce? My contract role ended just before finding out my pregnancy. (I am moving to another end of Singapore hence taking contract roles that is close to my old home). After movement, I am on a lookout for a perm role that is close to my new home but my husband refused to let me work after finding out my pregnancy. This is my 1st pregnancy and I do not have a good health to begin with. Will it be diffcult for me to land a job after my delivery and confinement after being out of job for 1 year?

depends on your industry, but I did stop work when I was pregnant with my first and only went back to work when LO was nearly 1. then 3 years later now I'm with #2, I only stopped working in my second trimester and also planning to go back only when #2 is almost 1. I do mostly contract/freelance jobs

I'm taking CPA so couldn't change the industry unless I give up on the certification. I have to clock 3 years working experiences and complete the modules to get the certification and i'm halfway there already. :(
