Gigi- hun my rent is not half of my money (prob would be but i have 3 children) One thing you are not takking into account is child support, dont forget he has to pay you.. he can not get out of it now. Centrelink has a child support estimator that you can use.
Unfort if the rent you pay is that high you will def have to cut back on luxuries, even compromise with where you live.
YOu could always visit me to have your Net fix I promise!!!
Its hard but there are services you can contact, The Smith family, the Salvation Army
and yes the pension card has its benefits, cheap prescriptions, you are entitled to a phone allowance, i get arrox $30 off my elect bill a mth, $30 of my rego renewel, then when ever concession is avaible you are entitled.
Being as you use MCN you will save a bundle as well
Anna I haven't been too happy with the newborn magicalls but I find the smalls to be fine. I think it's because there isn't much of a soaker in them. Ruby is 3.6ish kilos and the small is a tad big on her but not for much longer I reccon.
I haven't got the newer haute pocket but had an older style one. It was fine on my broad little fella but he ended up being too big in the rise for it, though there was plenty of room around the middle.
Gigi from my observations there are narrow crotched nappies and there are nappies that are narrow in the crotch and the seat if that makes sense. Ittis are narrow in the crotch but have a wider seat than swaddlebees for example which is why I could use ittis but not sb's on Caleb for you too hun!
Rhoda there are a couple of nappies that shorten down to CT so tell us in longhand
