It has been six month since the new Health in Pregnancy Grant was launched and more than 468,000 mums-to-be have benefited from it.<\/p>\n
The grant worth \u00a3190 is a one-off payment to help pregnant mums stay fit and healthy in the run up to birth.<\/p>\n
inancial Secretary to the Treasury said Rt Hon Stephen Timms MP:”I’m delighted that so many mums-to-be have already claimed the Heath in Pregnancy Grant.<\/p>\n
“If you’re pregnant now don’t lose out – it’s really easy to claim. You can spend the cash on whatever you like, including fresh vegetables, a cot, nappies or baby clothes. It’s completely up to you.”<\/p>\n

The grant can be claimed from the 25th week of pregnancy. Mums will be given a claim form by their midwife to sign and send off.<\/p>\n
The money will not affect other benefits, with one sum being paid for each pregnancy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
