I have SPD and am finding it SO hard to walk at the moment, I went to the supermarket today and could have sobed as I drove by the blue badge parking spaces. I would never consider parking in a blue badge area (and can appreciate there are others far worse off than me). I then drove by the mother and child spaces - can't park in there either as my child isn't 'out' yet.

I parked some distance away -- could have cried! My sadness turned to extreme anger when some man razzed up in his 4 x 4, parked in a mother and child spot and jogged in to the supermarket!!!

Boy was I angry!!!! Angry If I could have caught up with him I would have given it to him with both barrels!!!!

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Poor poor you! I'm 36 weeks preg and thought I had SPD - but m/wife told me I have trapped nerve in hip due to baby lying stupidly - and even though it's ridiculously painful she said it's nowhere near as bad as SPD - so i really really feel for you.

I would say park in the mother and child space and screw anyone who dares argue with you - and point out your situation. Sad
