Red flags but make it corporate

This week’s question:  I returned to work full time after my first child when she was eight months and moved into a new role in a 10 month contract. My boss has extremely high expectations for herself and I find myself taking this on. we are planning for trying for a second child, but I'm also needing to think about applying for other permanent ongoing roles with maternity leave  in the quest for balance of work and family life. When is it appropriate to share this planning with your employer and how do you approach this?
