Done fucked up today

TL,DR: accidentally told a potential employer I want to have a baby soon, how bad is it?

Talking to a potential employer today about taking on some contract work and told him I wanted him to have a baby in the next year or so and that’s why I didn’t want to commit to longer than a year (since I want health/maternity benefits).

He was smiling and nice about it, but I am just kicking myself for saying it. I’m not sure why it slipped out but it has been top of mind for me for the past year.

I’ve worked with him before and consider him kind of a mentor (not sure if that makes it better or worse).

How bad is this honestly? It feels pretty bad 🫠
