good luck amber

Im glad it took you a while aswell Nats!!

Jue, so we wont get anything until Josh is one in case i go back to work...is that what you mean? why is it so difficult to figure out what we are entitled to???

 

[Jkelmum]

thanks serina, i have just had a go at that calculator thing and we aren't entitled to any means tested benefits, the only thing was a funeral benefit.. x

I would still apply when baby comes as they change the amount u are allowed every april worth a shot x

 

[Jkelmum]

Good morning! How is everyone today? Just thought I would let you all know I have another ultrasound this morning in about an hour. I'm praying the doctor who did my ultrasound was wrong and they tell me today its a girl. I doubt it but I guess I can wish! I will let everyone know how it goes when I get back.

Good luck with scan XxX

Yer id agree with that ... it doesnt hurt to apply hun and the online thing tells me something very very diffrent to what i actually get (in other words its useless)
It might be worth you while nipping into a jobcenter/citizens advice bureau and asking them

 

[ClaireyF]

thank you, i will get to the bottom of it! i will get what ever money we are entitled to, after all i haven't been paying taxes for nothing!! xx

Hi good luck with scans!!

I slipped on the ice on the way to work this morning (somehow managed to stay on my feet) but it brought the pain in the top of my leg and pelvis back with a vengance!!

Cath how did your appointment go? Hope your not in too much pain!

Baby is moving round so much I love feeling it kick, OH cant feel it yet tho I wish he could.

I know it sounds silly as its 18 weeks away but my panic about giving birth is coming back, I just dont know how I'm going to do it, I'm such a wimp!

 

[kittiekat]

Just wanted to pop in and say good luck tomorrow rosella, serina and amber, I am so jealous lol!

Only another couple of days and hopefully I will be on here announcing to the world whether LO has a hamburger or hotdog lol!

 

[Cariad_bach]

what a exciting week for scans ..

Serina, rosella and Amber tomorow and you Kat and Louise on Friday ... i cant wait to see all the piccies and find out if were increasing our Footie team or Princess parade!

Leanne take care on the ice hun and dont stress about giving birth ... its great, you will remember the moment you meet your LO forever and more often than not the memory's are fantastic ones

It dosnt matter that your a wimp, im the biggest wimp around .. i love tattoos and i had 1 and swore never again, i actually cried but id give birth anytime .. its fine

Kat what times your scan at hun?

 

[mrsholmes]

gald ur ok mel-def be carefull!!

Thanks Jue I was in work left at 8 and got n at 6 and now I cant walk or get up from the chair, so def not going in tomorrow i need the rest will hopefully get into the docs!

good luck with all the scans!


ive just done the tax credit thing. dont really get it? do I put my pay in or just sat mat pay? I doubt we'll get anything either claire! gutted.......

 

[mrsholmes]

forgot add.........

I agree reading all the stories is so sad it must be terrible what people are going though my OH doesn't say much as BnB keeps me quiet and he gets to play the comp all night lol, but my friends think im mad, when I tell them what been happening etc good andnot great stores stories x

 

[Cariad_bach]

Cath for your tax credits you need to try to work out what you will get next year from April to April
(they say put in what you got last year but thats just for people that are going to be pretty much the same from year to year)

So you OH's wage for the year ... then the bit you will get before you go on Mat leave ... then what you think you will get whilst on Mat leave ect, just to give you a idea.

When you do it now you have no kids so may not get anything, if you apply as soon as babys born you will have 1 child under the age of 1 (which you get more for ... it drops after their first birthday)
If you get it then you can apply for your Mat grant anytime before your LO's 3 months old so you need to get on and sort the tax credits as soon as shes born.

Im sorry to hear your still in so much pain hun ... really hope the Doc can sort you tomorow ... dont let him fob you off with rubbish excuses, its not normal!

 

[amber20]

I knew it wasn't going to change but here is the pic!

 

[mrsholmes]

thanks Jue I get it now! my pay will be a lot less so we might get something when LO arrives!

Im going at the end of the day when its at its worse!
