Universal credit claim review phone call 😩

Hello sorry non baby related question here!
Has anyone had one of these phone calls from UC? I’m slightly petrified, as it seems very interrogating.

Yes i had one when I first made my claim, they just ask for ways to verify your identity like a credit check almost its not thamat bad at all x.

it’s just to review your situation. I was meant to have a call but later said that because I’m working is no longer needed and they asked for bank statements (only once I started working) to ensure they were paying the right amount into my account. You can decline if you’re not comfortable from some TikTok’s I’ve seen. But I would just show them the main account they pay the funds into. If you have any savings linked to the account that might show they will want that too.

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
