Hi,
found out last week I am 6 months pregnant! It’s great news and we are very happy / excited / nervous!

please give me advice for the rest of pregnancy / what I need to do / ask / buy? Etc etc! I already have a 13 year old daughter but it seems so long ago since I last did this that I feel like a first time mum all over again! Many thanks x

Congratulations!
Priorities should be:
-Take folic acid and vitamin D supplements
-Register with a midwife and see if they can do any kind of anomaly scan at this gestation
-Inform your employer if you are working and decide when you'd like mat leave to start

In terms of buying stuff, you've got some time left but I would prioritise car seat, crib, pram,
Everything else can be bought much more quickly than these big costs.

Thank you,
have had midwife appointment and first scan (anonomaly), told work and had a risk assessment.

we have a tiny house so looking to move at some point, just need to fit baby and things in!! Also change the car 😳
