Yeah it’s separate, you can try but I’m pretty sure they only backdate 6 weeks. 100% apply now though xx

@Kiera Omgg I feel so stupid 😞xx

@Charlotte honestly don’t! They don’t make anything easy and straightforward at all. If you’re already on UC you’ll be eligible xx

@Kiera thank you so much xx

We hadn’t claimed it and we got back dated 3 months :)

@Georgia that’s good then xx

there defo needs to be more information for new mums about life after with a baby but yh it's 2 separate things don't worry when i fell pregnant i thought i had to phone the council or something had no idea what i was meant to do

@Tanya I agree x
