    oh code-a-holic that osunds terrible but I am aware that it can continue after the birth which i why I use hopefully so frequently.

    well I have been in touch with schools transport and been told that as it is pregnancy related I am not entitled to any help regarding getting my son to school _ on exactly the same day as we get an " every day matters leaflet" about fines if your child doesn;t attend from the school.

    I had thought about getting a motability scooter had never thought about geting a second hand one or even freecycle . I'll look into that .
    I am journeying to a debt-free life.
    Our estimated debt-free date is January 2040. I'm on a mission to bring that date closer!

    I don't suppose a Blue Badge would help? Probably not, but thought I'd mention it. I've still got the application form sitting here, but the chap from the Council I spoke to seemed to think that I'd qualify for a temporary Blue Badge due to SPD.

    Other than that probably not relevant information, you have lots of sympathy from me. Is the Physio helping? I find a support band, exercises and crutches really help.

    yes the suport band is a god send right now i wouldn;t be able to move without it and crutches are helpful but i find i overdo it if i use them so try to manage without and just do what i can ( because overdoing it during the day means its hell at night)

    right now i am managing , i have bought myself a bus pass so that I save a little bit on the bus fares to and from school I am just disgusted that I get no help because i am getting my son to school , If i keep him off for a month eductaion wlefare would help but i don't want my son missing out on that much education at this early stage when everything is so important .

    I am just insanely grateful right now for internet shopping
