All the best for the coming week.

As barb says, contact your ip and let them know. The last thing you need right now is to worry about your finances.

You just concentrate on that lovely baby you're about to have.

Ahh Gemma all the best for this week. The best thing todo is to speak to your Ip when able. Talking sooner rather than later would be better. Your Ip will be able to discuss options for you and the sooner done the less you will worry. Baby comes first though so as said concentrate on that first.

As everyone else has said speak to your IP, I am sure something can be done, even if possibly extending your IVA term.

Concentrate on you and your baby and enjoy it, all the best Kirsty
