    It took about 2 weeks for me to get it after DD.

    I think ours took 4 weeks from when the paperwork was lodged in the office. We are in Melbourne but are in the Casey area which is the biggest baby booming area in the country (so I was told by our health nurse & mothers group leader) so would be busier than most areas. It was also lodged a week after the birth which just happened to coincide with June 30 so that could have delayed things a little.

    We got ours 3-4 weeks after the forms being lodged. I was told that August-September was the busiest months they've seen in a while (still haven't received birth certificate, been 8 weeks since forms sent!).
