    this is why I don't want to leave it until august as i reckon it'll be scrapped. It's not fair as I feel like whenever it's my turn they always scrap stuff! I can't apply for it any sooner as I don't get tax credits as I'm 24 with no kids currently!


    If your oh claimed job seekers I think you would be eligible for the surestart, I think it would be worth asking citizens advice

    I hope to get the HIPG form at 28 week appointment along with my MATB1 form, this is slightly late but I've covered it with work so would be submitting that when I get it on tues next week.

    rach neros at east croydon is perfect, will look out for another pg lady - should have my baby on board badge on!!
    Me too, weirdly though my work policy only says I ahve to tell them in writing 28 days before I intend to start mat leave! I've double checked it with HR and the date the internet gave me apparently has no relevance it's just the qualifying week! I will do it as soon as I ahve the form though anyway

    Great stuff re Neros, I've given up on the badge but I do look rather pg now! Yay, look forward to baby talk and moaning about DHs! :D

    No no, please don't

    Better get my teeth cleaned and get on the bus. Ended up moving beds at 5.30am as I'd alrady woken dh by snoring and then I did a massive loud sneeze :rotfl: so I sensed it was time to take my leave :A

    I'm so glad this is my last working day - I could cope with 3 day weeks!

  • Morning ladies..

    Glad there are a few other first timers who are worried/nervous about thje "6 hours and out" thing...Im terrified...absolutely terrified.

    Im acutally considering going to the birthing centre at Canterbury (40 mins away), you can stay as long as you want there...but worried that we wouldnt make it in time!

    I wanted to ask some of you experienced ladies, I keep getting pains in my pelvic area (if standing/sitting too long, walking too far or going up stairs) feels like my legs are on elastic...has anyone had this? is it worth telling mw?

    Who else has lied when the MW became so obsessed with whether or not you had opened your bowels???????????

    Yep I lied!!

    Thankgoodness they don't want to see evidence:rotfl:

    I'm going to apply for surestart grant. I assumed I wont be entitled as we're both working but having had a good old google I think there's a possiblity I might get it!?! I'm probably wrong and the computer says No but no harm in trying!

    Must do my MA form today.

    :( Am I the only one who didn't lie??!! :eek: That woman did things to me a that women should not do together :eek::o:rotfl:

    Smartie - Apply for everything. I am. We've always had too much income to claim for anything but OH gets made redundant in 2 weeks so I'll be claiming then.

    CAFC - Poor you. I didnt mind being OD the worst bit was everyone asking "Is she here yet??" . Try to relax with it all. Have you finished the grandparent hamper yet?
