if u really want to spend it, rather than saving it incase of emergencies, then i'd suggest that u take an averaged priced holiday, and put the rest on the mortgage. have u tried somewhere like centre parcs for a holiday ? the kids would love it, and it wouldn't take up all your money. i'd probably put £1,000 towards the holiday & maybe a couple of new outfits for yourself, and then put the other £1,000 on the mortgage. whatever u choose, i hope u have a good time using the money. |

£500 for one or two special items for youself. Preferably something that will keep or rise in value.. some antiquity of your choice.
£500 x 3 in to savings accounts for your children. Maybe ISAs if under 16s can have them. |

Open a savings account and thats it. If you need cash just withdraw the amount you need. You may give some to me(JOKE). |

you should put the money away so that if anything comes up after the baby is born you will have some extra money to take care of the problem |

I know this isn't terribly helpful, but why don't you just stick it into a savings account for now and see what happens after your baby is born. I find that I make too many rash decisions when I have money to spend and end up blowing it then regretting it later. |

Hmm, I would say save it for the kids education, but England takes care of their kids and their education, LOL! I would buy one extravagent fun thing for your family and then put the rest into a high-yield money market account and forget about it. It can be your emergency money fund, plus it will collect intrest, nothing like free money! |

Put it into an instant access cash ISA (5-5.5%) for when you need it. |

would you benefit from a holiday before baby comes? lets face it you will not have much time for yourself when baby arrives, i personally would have a family holiday spend some time with kids but this is up to you |

Save it - but I guess you could spend a part of it buying something that the whole family would enjoy... |
