Interview when pregnant
So I wasn't looking but an opportunity to interview came up so I'm going to take it. Now 1- what the hell do I wear when pregnant? And 2- do you disclose in the interview you are pregnant?

Interview when pregnant
I probably would if you're showing. No reason to hid it. I'd just mention it casually. I'd probably also ask about benefits and parental leave if you're offered the position only because I know you have to work for my company for at least a year before you can qualify for maternity leave benefits and I think FMLA.

Yeah I believe FMLA is the same for all of NY. Must have worked 1250 hours to qualify. I'll have to ask if I can take a leave without pay since I wouldn't qualify for FMLA should I get the position

Re: Interview when pregnant
Nope, no reason to tell them during an interview and it's illegal for them to ask you. If you're showing, then they'll figure it out on their own. Otherwise, I'd disclose it farther along in the process, before you'd accept a new role.
You should wear what you'd normally wear to an interview. If your suit doesn't fit, then perhaps maternity black pants and a blazer from your suit with a nice top.
