Congratulations! They cannot ask about you being pregnant. I was 7 months pregnant when hired, and I was the one to mention it in my interview. You can ask for details on the benefits, but many employers do not give you maternity leave until one year of employment. You may have to burn through vacation days and/or FMLA (reduced/no pay) for your leave.
