It is probably holiday pay - you accrue holiday pay while on Maternity leave, so if you aren't going back they have to give you holiday pay you have accrued while you were off.

It was the same amount as SMP £123.40, im owed roughly £1200 in holiday pay :j:j

But that has to be taxed

Then we are using it to clear our debts, we want to be debt free by xmas

Ok just had a mild panic, E has started shaking his head from side to dide, kinda like he is saying no, and I panicked cos I'd heard it was an autistic trait, but I googked it and apparantly its quite common in babies his age

Does anyone else's baby do this?

Lily does it all the time

Its a new thing they have learnt i assume. I asked for a cuddle and she shook her head :rotfl:

KOAG, Elijah did that for a while too, and I've seen other babies also. Wouldn't worry, though can always ask an HV next time you see one I guess

Finn just started doing this a few weeks ago. Seems to happen most often when he's tired, but also randomly sometimes. I think it's pretty normal.

Thanks guys phew lol, he is tired, and when I googled it lots of mams said their babies did it when they were tired

I googled austim in babies and E doesnt have any symptoms, well that was my first case of fretfull mother as OH calls it lol

Molly did it; I panicked; Googled till my fingers were worn down to nothing; found a bunch of stuff saying, Babies often do this when they're this age and tired; stopped panicking.

Sometimes good mummies worry over nothing. Better that way than the other IMO xxx

KOAG, All mine have done it, with the exception of DS2 who only managed a one sided shake. Most babies do the head shaking. As far as it being an Autistic trait it's one of those ones where you could also say that breathing is an Autistic train because children with Autism breath. A lot of the websites have started taking it off their 'key signs' lists along with arm flapping, which many babies also love doing, because it leads to so many parents worrying over what is normal behaviour. I'm not saying it's not a trait, just that more often than not, it's just that the baby has discovered that if they shake their head its feels funny and it's a bit fun so they do it over and over again until they discover the next fun thing.

Does anyone know where the V5 document is for the heap? I think Dh has hid it. He has admitted that he was the last one to look at it to check if the heap was a turbo or something, and that he has probably left it at his !!!!. So, if you were my idiotic husband, where would you put a Very Important Document? He's such and !!!! today, came back from the garage and immediately opened and drank a can of beer so he had 'an excuse not to sell the car today'. Even though he agrees it would be better to sell it, he's so bloody lazy that he wont because we will have to share a car for a few days. I am so mad at him. Oil is leaking out the gear box and he thinks its ok for my to drive it with the kids inside because in his words 'it will only break down, not burst into flames.' Well he can go **** himself. Bloody bloody git!

Anyone have any others they have used? etc

Thanks again guys, Its just I had read on here before about traumatic births possibly being linked to autism so with E having that, then doing the head shake I was like ARGH lol, but its ok, I am calm now, and I do think its just something he has learned
