Pregnancy Discrimination??

So, at work they are doing a restructure. They told me on Monday that by the end of March my position would be eliminated and that i had to choose from two open positions, both of which I have already done for several years. I agreed to decide. Well, today, before I could even give my decision to anyone the HR rep comes to me and says that they are just going to keep me in my current position until I go on maternity leave because I am pregnant. Now, had she framed that so it sounded more like, "better for the company" or something, I would not have been so upset. But if I were not pregnant they would have me move. Because I am pregnant, they want me to stay? I was pretty upset and did tell my boss after an hour or so of cooling off that I didn't appreciate the way the whole thing had been handled. It is true that I was looking forward to switching things up for the last two months before I deliver- I am really bored in my current position and every day requires a really long pep talk to keep me going, and essentially sucks. If they really want me to stay in an eliminated position for a few months, that's fine, as long as the reason isn't pregnancy! That seems to be discrimination to me! Everyone has been asking for months now when I plan on going on maternity leave- I am due in freakin June! I don't really have much of a belly now! I have felt harrassed for a while, and this is icing on the cake! Unfortunately no one overheard so I can't really do anything about it. But still! Sorry for the rant. Just wanted to know what you ladies thought and if you have had any similar experiences. It really sucks!

Maybe they just didn't want you to get started in the new position before you went out on maternity leave because you never KNOW when you'll have to actually go out. But, I dunno. Hopefully it's not a case of discrimination.
