Birth registration

Hi, girls! Any idea how long it takes to get the birth certificate for a baby born at the end of May? Apparently the HSE is still under the cyber attack and is not processing anything 🙄

Literally just looking into this this week. It’s a joke.

I have emailed them and they said at least 5 more weeks until they look for my information, total joke

Ciara do you have the email address? I sent my stuff to the email listed on HSE website but got no acknowledgment of receipt or anything ?!

Hey sorry for the late reply, crsupdates.dublin@hse.ie this is the email address I have emailed, I haven’t sent any information off yet as they said 5 weeks to even get back to me for the information xx

I think it took about 3 weeks for mine to come back. Was just long enough that I was thinking of ringing them

So I rang them and got a callback where I was given two additional email contacts, iv subsequently heard that they are awaiting the information from Hse but it’s in process. The other contact emails I used were gro@welfare.ie and births@welfare.ie - I copied them all then finally got a couple of responses ! Very slow indeed….b!

It’s ridiculous at this stage. So hard to try and talk to someone.

I registered my baby end of May but only got my babies PPS number after 3 weeks and a lot of calls. I was told to call back if I needed a physical birth certificate but over cyber attack it could take a while.

I assume as posted 19 days ago you got an answer but theres s big delay from the cyber attack. Hospitals weren't able to send a notification of the birth at the time. I did the online form and posted it in to registration office who then called me to let me know hospital notification wasn't done, so called hospital then to get it done and it's sorted now

Still haven't gotten the pps yet though! Got birth cert this week so could take a week or two for that

I got a letter from child benefit office with PPS about 2 weeks after the registration office confirmed he was registered. It’s all a mess 😃

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Scan needed at 33 weeks

Hi ladies! I just had a midwife appointment (I am 33+5)..the midwife was different to my usual midwife. She's requested I have a scan within 72 hours as she said baby is measuring a little small, however, she did say that it's likely nothing to worry about and it's probably just her measuring me a bit different to my usual midwife. Has anyone else had this? Am a bit worried although babys heartbeat and movements are completely fine.

Finding out gender

Has anyone found out the gender at a private scan at 14 weeks? And has this been accurate?

I found out at 17 with my first but I know a scan place that offers from 14/15 weeks and I’m impatient 😂🥲

normal or infected?

5 weeks post c section , i went at the beginning of the week as my wound had opened completely different area to what’s leaking. was told it didn’t look infected. anyone know if this is normal coming off it, it’s only a little amount at a time

Hi

Hi guys so I’m 25 weeks today and I haven’t felt the baby kick at all yet at the scans she’s moving constantly that it’s hard to get the right measurements my first pregnancy was cryptic so I just want suggestions from one worried mother

Rolling milestone at 5 months - What’s typical ?

Good morning ladies,

My daughter will be 5 months old tomorrow, but there’s still no sign of her rolling. She does tummy time and loves lying on her mat, playing with hanging toys above her and to the sides, but she only lifts her legs and doesn’t seem interested in rolling or moving sideways yet.

Anyone else the same or have your babies already learnt how to roll yet ?

Thank you
