Hi everyone I’m just a little upset and want to rant. I’ve had my baby she’s 11 weeks old. The clinic that I was going to that takes my insurance just sent me a bill for my FIRST visit. The visit in which I had my ultrasound to check for baby’s heartbeat. They informed me that they accepted my insurance hence why I went there. The rest of the appointments I haven’t received a bill for. i contacted my insurance they informed me that I should’ve never received the bill. From my understanding the midwife that took my appointment filled something out wrong or she wasn’t covered by my insurance. I ..read more

I'd like to have a positive impact on the local community and want to see if I can do that first through the community of MUMS! I'm thinking of developing a service that allows Mums and Mother's to be, to rent out maternity clothes. I've come across a number of Mothers and Mum's to be who spend so much upfront on maternity clothes and then end up never wearing them again. Not only should this help out your wallet, it will also do amazing things for the planet. As strong mums, I would love to hear your feedback. I've put together a super quick survey that should take you less than 2 minutes to ..read more

When did you start wearing maternity clothes?

First time expectant mother here! I’m trying to plan what I’ll be needing to add to my wardrobe as I progress in this pregnancy! I’m only 7 weeks now (due in November) so this is for the future. But I’m already trying to plan if I’ll need maternity clothes this summer or if I can make do with what I have. I’m a smaller person who will likely show pretty quickly as I wear a XS/S and a 25 in jeans. I know everyone is different but I would love to know what to expect! submitted by /u/Ok_Honeydew77 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Not going back after Mat leave

So long story short I work for the NHS and received OMP & SMP. I’m due to go back soon (if I don’t I have to pay back my OMP) I’m not in a position financially to pay it back. However I do not want to go back! They are aware I am only coming back for 3 months to pay it back then leaving (due to some depression/anxiety issues I have leaving my daughter) I have 6 weeks holiday to use, so only have to work 6 weeks. Question is, if I get signed off for 6 weeks with my mental health does this clear my debt to my work? I’d happily take the 6 weeks unpaid - I’m not after the money, I just will n ..read more

Anyone else on unpaid maternity leave? How are you surviving and making extra income while on maternity leave? We put aside money to prepare and had unexpected expense (of course perfect timing) we had to dip into bill money for. I’m so stressed about everything financially. It’s to the point our electric is going to be shut off tomorrow and we’re going to have to live with it until next paycheck I feel selfish putting my spouse through financial stress all on him when he wanted to go back to work last week to keep us afloat but postpartum has hit me hard and couldn’t bare him going back to w ..read more

Postpartum Anxiety - EDD Question

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I'm reaching out here for some advice on behalf of my wife. She gave birth about two months ago, and we're navigating the process of accessing government aid for benefits related to postpartum anxiety. Her OB/GYN has already submitted some forms that enabled her to receive six weeks of support. However, we've learned that she may be eligible for an additional six weeks of assistance through her general practitioner (GP). Unfortunately, her GP isn't certain about the specific forms needed to facilitate this. If anyone has any insights or suggestion ..read more
