congrats on ur pregnancy...i think the fortnightly single parenting and family tax a+b adds up to about 1000 to 1100 per fortnight plus you would get the extra for the baby bonus for the first 6 months a fornight...i thinkk they do make you get dad to sign the birth certificate because they do make you claim child support and the pension isnt enough to live of so every dollar he has to fork out will help.......you can also claim rent assistance,not sure if u live at home otherwise if you do not sure how it works in regards to things....theres like 150-200 immunisation payment when there 18 month needles are done...but i would definatly go in for a chat or look it up on the centrelink website.....when i was pregnant i was on looking for work allowance but kept handing in letters from my doctor about my depression and things.....but i was living out of home so not sure how that would work if your at home.....

good luck for the future and i hope everything works out for you
