    It would be alright if I had a square bum!! It's not the most comfortable bog! Thankfully there's more than one here so I don't really use that bathroom!

    sure start

    Then it may only take a couple of weeks to come through if you already get that :) The woman on the phone (VERY rare to get through to one of those people) said it usually only takes a couple of weeks when it's granted so hopefully you'll have yours soon. :cheer:

    sure start

    You need to have been granted your Tax Credit first. Once this is in place they will pay in to your account. We've only just got ours (see my thread in this section) and Jack is 3 1/2 months old!

    When did your baby sleep through?

    Jack has slept through since he was about 6 weeks old, and before then only woke twice. There have been a few exceptions, when he's woken to get in our bed or for dummy which has now stopped and he doesn;t take a dummy unless we're out shopping and he's bored! Or the odd time when he's fallen...

    Maternity Grant **UPDATED**WE GOT IT!!**

    OK Ladies, I'll try and make this simple. We got tyurned down for Mat Grant as at the time our tax credit hadnt been confirmed, so we then appealed. I just called to chase up the appeal, but was told very bluntly that we are no way entitled to it!! We get £21.60 a week. From when Jack was...

    Being prepared for feeding!

    I did buy bottles and formula prior to birth. If it helps, you can get ready made cartons (about 56p) rather than buying a whole big can which will cost up to £8. I didn't take them to the hospital but I knew I had OH on hand incase he needed to fetch them. Thankfully the ward had a feeding...

    Yay! Welcome to my world! That's how Jack started, and we carried on dreamfeeding not wanting to risk him waking, but we took the risk, and he slep through all by himself! Fingers crossed for you :)
