I've sat down and had a good look at the finances today. Done a complete total up for the first time in a while. It's not looking pretty
There's not a lot of movement.
So that focussed me to do some listing. I've put on 17 for DH and 15 for me.
I am really going to have to step up my game otherwise I'm going to be here forever.
I'll need to do a lot of work on maternity leave to try and get this house sorted and get things cleared. Hopefully baby will be chilled out!
I did a survey a while ago which was a £20 payout. For some reason they haven't paid out, so I've messaged about that. It was very time consuming so they'd better!
Will try and update my lists now."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

You were in a similar situation for baby Jwil 1 and that turned out OK. I have no doubt you will manage it all and I'm confident that the second baby Jwil will be a very chilled little person.
Your maternity leave should give you a chance to take a bit of a breather and then go full-pelt into clearing some more of your stuff and raising more funds. Just remember, Jwil, that you are meant to allowing yourself some rest at this stage of your pregnancy.

Thanks peaceandfreedom, fingers crossed! I'm just not where I wanted to be, so panic creeps in periodically.
Don't worry, my body isn't letting me do too much at the moment, it's very frustrating"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0
