Struggling financially

Hi mums,

I need some advice. Me and my parter were doing okay, but not having much savings when the baby arrived. I am now on SMP and our income significantly dropped when the bills etc. stayed the same. My partner found some additional work but it’s still not the same and I can’t work as we have no one to help with the baby and she is too small to go to nursery.

I also read that most likely we won’t be eligible for the Universal Credit because of my partner’s earnings. How do we solve it as it’s barely enough for the bills and we will start accumulating debts 😭

How are you managing with pretty much just one income?

Job recommendations

What do you do for a living? I live in Kent and I'm looking for a new job. I don't want to commute to London but I need something that pays 35k at least. I have a law degree but have been working in admin for the last decade.

Im looking for new job ideas. What do you do? Is it compatible with family life?

I need some advice!

Me and my boyfriend are expecting our first baby in December, before I became pregnant we were constantly having sex as I have always had a high sex drive but now I am 26 weeks pregnant and we haven’t had sex in about 4/5 months. My boyfriend is very scared about hurting me or the baby so has been avoiding it completely (even head).
I masturbate sometimes when I get really horny but I just want that intimacy back with him.
What can I do?
