Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Alabama

pregnancy discrimination

I have worked at a small buisness part time for two months. I informed a coworker about my pregnancy. She said she would inform my boss about it. The very next day my boss called to say i was fired without giving me any prior warnings to my termination. Do i have a case for wrongful termination based on pregnancy?
