I was hired at this office job back in March and soon after being hired I found out I was pregnant. Up until I told them, I had no problems here. They always told me what a great find I was and that I did a great job. Recently, they have been treating me a lot different. My supervisor keeps complaining to me that I’m not doing things right, when I've been doing everything the same as I always have. Do you think they are just trying to find something to fire me for, since they can't fire me for being pregnant? or is it something else?

Be very careful with this and make sure you document everything especially if you can show where you did jobs right and were still criticized for it. I don't know if you are still within a probationary period if you are they don't really need a reason to fire you. If you are past that they would need to show documented proof as to what you did wrong and why they would need to fire you.
There is still so much discrimination against pregnant women in the work place the best thing you could do for yourself is to find out your rights.

take it up with ur supervisor. if he denies it take it to small claims court it sounds like they are trying to fire you. at any job there is to be no descrimination against any one person NO MATTER WHAT. look at an employee hand book. or call the corpriate manager and tell them whats going on.

It is possible. Some company are not supportive of pregnant employee's.
