Pregnant at work, I need legal advice?

I'm pregnant and I've had to take some sick days; today I have a fever, I'm throwing up (I haven't had morning sickness for a while), and I'm so tired that I can barely stand up. My work wouldn't let me go home; they gave me such hell that I'm afraid for my job. Someone please tell me what my rights are?Pregnant at work, I need legal advice?
Most businesses have information on the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) on their bulletin board. I believe it is required by law to post this information. You can find out your rights by simply reading the poster. Also, there may be some help from the Americans with Disablities Act (ADA). If you have a union, you may have additional safeguards.





Some lawyers will give you a free initial consultation, or if you can afford it an initial consultation for a flat $50 - $100. If at all possible, ask around for a good lawyer. People tend to have a good feel for whether they have received good representation, A cheap lawyer can easily cost you more than an expensive one. As much as I dislike lawyers, sometimes you just plain need professional advice. This lets you know if you have a legal remedy should they do something unethical, the best way to document it, and how long you have to make a claim or file paperwork. This is apparently one of those times you need a real lawyer.





For now, document everything you think may be of interest. How people say things to you, names, dates, witnesses, situations, and so on. Take notes at least.





Also, make sure you keep up with your medical care. What may be nothing for you, may be more serious for your 'little one'. Pregnancy means you're taking care of two people's health. By the way, congratulations.Pregnant at work, I need legal advice?
Works laws for things like that are different depending on the state you live in. For example, I live in Indiana, and here we are employed ';at will.'; That means that either party can terminate employment at any time with no reason so if you live here, you can lose your job for anything.
It depends on what state you live in. I don't think there are any law that allow pregnant women to have more sick days than a non pregnant woman. If anything you should look into your company's sick/personal day policy.
