Hi everyone, I've just found out I'm pregnant and going to be a single mum. I am working full time and am worrying about how I am going to cope financially on maternity leave as getting the SMP will only just cover my mortgage. Can anyone advise thanks!

Ooooh, I was kinda the same situation except that I had just sold my house and was flat sharing when I found out.
Realistically, I could not have kept my house on my own whilst pregnant. I ended up moving in with my mum for a few months after ds arrived until I got a coucil house.
Still working full time tho and much better off without high mortgage, HTH !!
