New Advice! Please Help!!

So recently I just started a new job working first shift. My hrs are 5am-4:30pm. I'm 11weeks pregnant with my 3rd child this isn't new to me at all. I'm an temp at my job & have to go 90 days without calling off & being late to get hired in. I have not yet received prenatal care. But I have vitamin. I want to have an healthy pregnancy but I also don't want to be without a job & working for welfare 1st of the month checks like I did my last pregnancy. I have rent, lights, gas & water bill. Even with an excused note from my dr. I'll get a point at work. I recently went to an urgent care & everything is fine.

I am an emergency substitute at my daughter's school and often struggle with having the energy to get out of bed. I often push myself to exhaustion and had to limit the work days. I'm not sure how your job works but in the state of Washington (where I am) there are certain labor force laws. I would challenge theses while trying to maintain good work ethic. I talked to my boss and she understood, however, she has the kids so she understands. You cannot get fired for being pregnant, that is against the law.I would also recommend prenatal care. It is actually very important.
