Can child hild services get involved with my second baby?

[Thecolourgrey]

Hi guys please no judgement here as I'm confused about what's going to happen in my current situ.
Background - I have a 2 year old on a child in need plan, she has previously been on a child protection plan due to domestic abuse from her father towards myself (but the child herself has not been at risk of abuse, her dad is great with her). They've stepped her down to a child in need plan now with a view to being discharged within the next six months due to an adequate plan in place which has been working well (her dad collects her from my mum once a week, we no longer have contact).

Now I've found out that I'm 6 weeks pregnant with my second, different father but not in a relationship and the father will not be having anything to do with the child, his choice. I'm prepared to raise the new baby alone but this brings about the question - will social services be able to intervene with my second child as it is not at all at risk? Will they even be able to find out I'm pregnant at all? Can they check my medical records and will they be notified? My child is only on a child in need plan and by the time my second is born I assume I will no longer be under child services anyway. Experiences and advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you

I think you'll have a marker on your medical notes anyway so they will know

6 weeks pregnant? Why do you want to keep the pregnancy un your situation?

Because people make choices that suit them. Sensible or otherwise.

Please listen to the advice about being honest about your pregnancy.
It would be reckless to lie.
The last thing you want to look like is reckless if you and your child want to be discharged from social services.
Take advice and help, there's no shame in trying to improve you and your children's lives.

can they find out and are they able to intervene such as a pre birth assessment when there's not any risk to the second child

Social worker here - yes they can find out, not necessarily straight away if the case is closed, but given the case is still open, your health visitor/school nurse/GP will pass the information on. Why would you lie?
Secondly they may do an initial risk assessment but if the risk is no longer present they won't keep the case open if they don't need to.

But they'll know wont they because when you see a social worker (which you likely will before they end their involvement)they'll see that you are pregnant. Your attitude would worry me and I say that as someone who used to work in children's services. Are you more concerned about being embarrassed or accepting any support that may be helpful for you, DC and unborn DC? You need to be honest or you will likely have far more involvement than you would otherwise.

Making dumb decisions like trying to keep your pregnancy secret from your social worker is what has led to your current situation. Demonstrate that you have learned and changed by being honest with them from the start.

I am a SW and i would say you need to be upfront and honest with the MW. She is likely to know anyway. I would wonder what you had to hide if i was your SW and you tried to keep a pregnancy from me and it would probably lead to me staying involved for longer.
