A member asked:

In the us could a pregnant woman be fired for working fewer hours?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Unfortunately the answer is yes. In theory should be no discrimination, so they should try to accomodate as much as possible the needs as a pregnant woman. But i heard bad stories as well.
