    It's surprising that we can apply for family benefits and baby bonus before the baby is born, but not some kind of Medicare note. Online it just says you do it when they're born, so I'll ring up.
    Edited to say it appears the quickest way is to drop in at the Medicare office in person, when baby is born, and they give you a piece of paper with the new number on it? as per a number of other online forums.
