UC & maternity pay

Does anyone claim UC whilst getting maternity pay?
I’m due in may & I’m so worried that I’m not going to be able to afford to pay for everything! Would I be entitled to UC and getting my maternity pay? Does anyone claim this?

I got UC while I was on maternity leave. Its based on household income so will all depend on how much you and your partner earn (if you have one) or your income alone if you're single. Your UC would just reduce or stop once you return to work.

Thank you! Do you know how I could check what I could be entitled to? X

I got nothing whilst receiving maternity pay as I was getting maternity allowance rather then smp.

Completely depends on circumstances

Single/joint claim?
Under/over 25 ?
Rent/mortgage ?
Any other children?

Dads app!

I have been using this app for the last 6 months ish and found it brilliant for advice and making friends. My partner though doesn’t have any male friends who are dads and I was wondering if anybody knows of anything similar to this app that he could use to find some other dads local to us, to chat to/get advice/make friends etc. anyone any ideas? ☺️

Why no active moms :(

Every mom that’s around me don’t reply to my messages :( I’m currently with a 2 yr old and prego but I guess ppl don’t like to hang out with prego ppl :(
