I'm 33 weeks pregnant with crippling SPD which I have crutches for, on and off severe sickness, sciatica, extreme fatigue from anemia (iron supplements really don't help the tiredness).
I live alone and have no one in the area that can help me since I moved up with exOH to be near his family. Moving back isn't an option now. My parents work full time so wouldn't be able to help me if I moved in with them. I had a bad fall this morning getting out of the bath and had to get a taxi to hospital. I struggle cleaning myself because I only have a bath and can't get permission to get a shower unit fitted. Baby was luckily fine but I've been told to go on bed rest because if I over do it I will cause some serious damage of myself that will continue after pregnancy.
I have been considering hiring a private carer to help me with my day to day life until my baby is born. Will it be possible to do so?
