Things between DP and I are going significantly pear-shaped AGAIN.

We have worked through things before so all is not lost, but I want to have a financial plan in place before having DD2 as I know my brain will be frazzled if I have to deal with money questions, separation and a newborn on top of health issues, moving house and having no support network.

So, I SHOULD, depending on how reasonable or unreasonable DP decides to be, have lots of cash after selling my current house.

But, depending on my health issues, these savings may be drained by paying for a nanny. As I said, I have no support. No-one to pop around for an hour or two, it will just be me.

I've checked out Family Asssistance and Child Support.

I guess my real question is if FA is means-tested so I may not get it if I do have money in the bank from the sale of the house.
