Just ring them and ask I did I received mine a few weeks back

Try it, but you will either be rejected or accepted xx

oh really? I thought you couldn't. I didn't apply when I was pregnant with my daughter cos I worked full time. but Iv hardly worked for the past year and don't get much wage, so was thinking of applying for it this time. do I just fill the form out online? @charliefreddiesmumma861 xx

Yeah @oliviafaye, x

can you get this with your second child if you didn't apply for it with your first? @charliefreddiesmumma861 @babyrosy1 @mimibear x

I tried twice and I got rejected for the maternity grant, because I don't have no tax credits or I'm on benefits, tried claiming tax credits and they said I'm entitled to £0, so don't know 🤔🤔x

You get the exact same text whether you get accepted or rejected xx

But you can only get it the once! So if you decide to have another baby you don't get the grant again x

They do it for anyone having a baby or had one x

I thought they only did this for people having twins I'm gonna look into this

Okay x thanks

could be both lol the first time mine got rejected but second time applying was successful x

Doesn't sound anything. Everyone who applies gets the same message
