Sure start maternity grant

Hello ladies,

I’m in the process of filling out the sure start maternity grant form. It says I need to send my MATB1 form off as proof of pregnancy however I’ve sent my original copy off in the post to someone else for maternity allowance so only have a photocopy of it now, will they accept this or do I need to get another from my midwife?? X

The midwife won't give you another. The photocopy should be accepted

You can’t use photocopy, I’ve already asked myself. They said a midwife or doctor can fill it in or health visitor. I took mine to my doctors and the community midwife filled it in

thank you x

i asked my midwife for a second one and explained why and she was fine so may e just ask your midwife x

oh brill thank you x

I got a second copy from my midwife. She sent it via post to my house x

My employer lost mine and my midwife wrote me one out there and then, id just ask them xx

Maternity allowance?!

it’s something in the uk x

right but like you get paid?

I’m so confused, I didn’t have to send anything away. I’m in Scotland though

yeah

wow! That’s insane! The more I’m on this app, the more I feel like the United States is crap! 😭

I get three months of maternity leave and won’t even receive my full pay!

naaaah that’s ridiculous!

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.

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Bestie?

Let’s skip to the good part and just be besties? Text, call, ft.. play dates or just simply hang out. Just want a genuine mommy friend. I’m in NYC but we can be long distance besties too 💕
