Hi all, hope everyone's Mondays are going okay.

Im currently 18 weeks pregnant and have made a referral to children's social services to start the process. My OH was sentenced to 18 month's suspended 3 years ago for IIOC and has 7 years left on SOR. He's got a SHPO too but only online based, no contact restrictions so we currently live a very normal life.

We had a late miscarriage earlier this year at 21 weeks and the stress of SS didn't help. They were wanting to go straight to preproceedings despite me being aware of the risk, OH having done courses and lots of family aware and around to support us.



We are expecting social services to turn up randomly at any moment and want to get a more solid safety plan in place to show us being proactive. In an ideal world, we'd love it if my OH could stay at home with us but perhaps in a separate room with some measures in place to mitigate risk during the night.

Would anyone be willing to share what they have done / safety plans they have in place to help us navigate this extremely rocky road.

Thank you all x

Distressed and pregnant
