Universal credit

I am 23 weeks pregnant and a single mum, I have one baby already she is 1.6 I have applied 6 months ago and already receive it , but I am not sure where could I let them know about my second pregnancy/baby I was trying to do it but all what I can do is let them know about my health changes but nothing to do with pregnancy. Does anyone can help or explain to me how to do it? Also moving in council house in a few weeks need to change adress as well but I am feeling so stupid for not seeing how to do it
Thank you xx

Heya, you should be able to let them know on the journal via health changes but if you wanna make sure they do it right I’d call them on 0800 328 5644 or pop in your job centre :) you’re not stupid, I’m convinced they make it hard or annoying to discourage people tbh! X

You cant add baby on until they are actually born and then they will ask for evidence of the birth so you have to show them the red book they get or there birth certificate I had to go into the job centre to do this. Also for address when you log into your account go to report a change then go down to where you live and what it costs you can’t actually do it till you’ve moved in as it asks you the date of the change and you can’t put it in as a future date xx

Just pop it under health changes it won't affect your claim until the baby is born they don't pay for pregnancy as I've recently found out

I know that, I just want to make sure they are aware about me being pregnant. I know they don’t pay you till baby is born xx

Just put it as a health change that's what I was advised

You have to let them know once you reach 20 weeks and you report it under the health section. This then updates on your journal and nothing happens until baby is born x

Question about ejaculation

I tell my partner to wear a condom not only for protection but also so that there's no mess to clean up when I get up to use the toilet. Is this normal?
I ask because I now have the contraceptive pill but I still want him to wear a condom.
