Expecting a child should be a joyous time.  It should not result in pregnancy workplace discrimination. Negative employment actions against a pregnant person is against federal laws.

Examples of pregnancy workplace discrimination:

Once you informed your employer, your role and/or responsibilities changed at work.

Maybe the employer even stated that the move was  in your best interest to protect you and your unborn child. 

Perhaps your hours change, or you were placed on a different shift. 

Or maybe you were terminated from employment as a Reduction-In-Force but a less qualified (and not pregnant) individual remained to perform your job. 

The employer may believe such a decision is in your best interest, but that does not mean you were not the victim of pregnancy discrimination.
