jobs for pregnant women?

I'm in need of a new job. I do security right now but don't make nearly enough to save for the new edition. I'm afraid of being discriminated against because I'm pregnant, even though I know I it's illegal for places to do that. Anyway, what are some good jobs to look for while pregnant?? Thanks girls!

I live in Tennessee. My job post is actually a sitting down position except for rounds I have to make every hour... Outside. I thought about working at a call center, think I'll look into that. I am also concerned about job security switching jobs but I will likely keep my current job but I WILL need a part time one also so that I'm not living check to check. Thanks for all the suggestions!

Try to find a job as a receptionist or something sitting down that's not gonna involve lifting. Like hair salon front desk worker or even a cashier cause your standing in one spot... but towards the end they would need to get you a stool to sit on

I work at a warehouse(sitting down) i got the job when i was 3months i told them from the get go only because they keep asking why i left truck driving to work a warehouse.  Only thing about transferring jobs in a current pregnancy you might not have a job to come back to. That's what I'm facing "wasn't on the job long enough"

I got a job at a grocery store 7 months pregnant. I told them before they hired me even though I don't look pregnant. It's not the best money but it helps out. Keep trying and don't give up!
