Work hazards?

I work in a factory, we use lead based products and chemicals. My first appt is in three weeks... Should I call and try to get in earlier to talk to my on about it? Last year another woman got pregnant and they pulled her from production and gave her a different job which is an option for me too.

Tell you're work, the first weeks is the most delicate stage, for abnormalities.

I agree with EllaMari, I would call ASAP! Being around those products and chemicals can be extremely harmful, esp early in pregnancy!
