I
am
over
8
months
pregnant
with
an
18
month
old
toddler.
Having
experienced
various
difficulties
during
my
first
pregnancy
and
in
the
year
that
followed
after
birth,
I
never
got
the
chance
to
use
a
voucher
that
my
friends
had
bought
me
for
this
spa.
They
wanted
to
gift
me
with
a
pregnancy
massage,
but
I
was
never
able
to
make
time
due
to
personal
circumstances
out
of
my
control.
I
got
in
touch
and
explained
at
length
what
had
happened,
and
explained
that
I
was
pregnant
again
and
that
I
could
really
do
with
a
massage.
I
really
politely
asked
if
they
would
extend
the
validity
on
this
one
occasion.
The
answer
came
back
swiftly
as
a
hard
no.
No
compassionate
tone,
no
kind
or
considerate
words,
just
'no
because
it's
been
almost
two
years
since
it
was
bought'.
So
my
friends
effectively
just
gave
this
business
£60
for
nothing.
As
people
know,
pregnancy,
labour
and
the
post-partum
period
can
all
be
incredibly
difficult
experience
and
can
create
some
longer-term
issues
that
take
time
to
work
through.
Making
time
for
some
self
care
can
feel
like
a
privilegedl
that
is
out
of
reach.
I'm
really
upset
that
this
local
business
made
a
decision
based
not
on
its
customer's
personal
circumstances
but
purely
based
on
business
and
financial
gain.
The
money
was
already
spent,
I
wasn't
asking
for
a
freebie
but
for
some
consideration
of
my
extenuating
circumstances.
I
wouldn't
recommend
this
place
purely
from
a
principled
point
of
view
-
spend
your
money
to
line
the
pockets
of
someone
who
deserves
it,
not
someone
who
is
looking
to
make
maximum
profit
without
one
compassionate
thought
about
their
customer's
personal
circumstances.
