The answer to part of this question depends on whether you are covered by the FMLA. If you have been a full time employee for at least 12 months (working 1250 hours during the last 12 months), and the company employs at least 50 people at your location (or at least 50 counting those at other nearby plants), then your absence is covered by the FMLA and you can probably file a claim in court. Even if you have not worked full time for 12 months, if the employer has approximately 40 to 50 employees, you may also be able to take action if the termination was based on your being pregnant. You may have other state law protections in your state. Consult with an employment law attorney in your area
