    You'll be fine hun :) *hugs*

    Have you looked into all you can claim in a couple of weeks? Sure start, HIPG?

    Just be strong. If in the first week you just don't feel up to the ex coming over then tell him no. You are the one who will have pushed a melon out of you so what you say goes.

    Do you have any friends that you can talk to?

    Good to hear you are making some positive moves and being assertive.

  • Not heard from the midwife yet, and for a change no texts or calls from the ex.. so far.
    Have had a great day DS and tried hard to baby proofing the kitchen so he has more space to play, but me and DIY do not go lol.

    Feeling quite positive today though.

    I have text the midwife so will await a call. Have told mil she can have DS overnight once a month maybe, but no more. And I have told the ex he can wait in the waiting room at the birth and see baby as soon as he is born, but that he cannot be in the room while I deliver etc.
    Going to sit down and try and think things through in a positive way rather than getting upset.


    :T:T:T:T

    Well done you!

    Result! :dance:
