Em I always thought late abortions are people who don't realise they're pregnant. Not everybody notices/recognises baby's movements and some women still have bleeds and things. I think people with significant learning difficulties are particularly vulnerable to not knowing they are pregnant. My mam used to be mates with a lady with learning difficulties who didn't know she was pregnant the first time until she was giving birth! I don't know the specifics of why/how etc but I've heard other stories like that too from women with learning disabilities in particular. I think it's more those cases where they end up having late abortions rather than people just changing their mind later or whatever.
Bacon Ooh, that's interesting.
Laska Copper PM'd me so I will post her them, but I only have a few I'm afraid anyway so not too exciting!
Sent my CV to 2 recruitment agencies advertising 2 different paralegal jobs. And also started an an application for faculty admin post at my brother's uni.
Copper That's really cool about your friend going on to work for the CPS. I haven't ruled that out but I think I'd find solely criminal prosecution work too difficult.
Spendy-ish here as we had lunch in a local café. DH paid for everything though.
Frugal news: posted receipts & form for reimbursements of some stuff from my disabled students allowances so that should be a bit of money coming to me in a few weeks (takes them ages to process stuff).
