    No I don't work
    Since my surgery I find it very stressful, I was a private cleaning for a while but found it hard to fit in with school drop and then miss 2 got to big to bring so I had to put her in care which used heaps of my pay.

    I think I'll still get $2k depending on when it changes so that will pay my pregnancy management fee (its $2200)
    The boy at Coles thought it started in 10 months I thought it started financial year...

    You must be so mad about the brakes!! What happened??
    Your scan sounds similar to mine but my downs chance lower which is nice but the disease I had is 10 in a million so Medical percentages don't mean alot to me lol

    Duchess you'll get 3k for the baby bonus.
    The drop to 3k for subsequent children starts July 1 & the new changes take effect March 2014.

    Mel yay for nice low results & and even bigger yay for feeling kicks
    Big boo for the brakes, that is such poor service. Glad it was only minor :hugs:

    Mel glad your ok makes me so cross when ppl don't do a good job esp with cars we really do trust they will work when they need to. Glad your ok.

    All this baby bonus stuff is annoying. I know I'll get the 18 week one but don't really thinks its fair for stay at home mums miss out. Will your dh still get the two weeks for dads if they work?

    DS was up sick last nights poor little guy then I had a big work thing today so felt so bad that I needed to leave him with my mum. Wow did I wash my hands and so far no sick tum for me. On a happy not squirt (DS came up with nick name) kept me smiling kicking all meeting

    The dads two weeks is half as much as my hubby's take home pay.
    It's not really fair to get nothing if we don't work, It would cost me a fortune to have miss 6 in before and after school care and miss 2 in daycare and I would hate putting baby into care before 14 months and it killed me when I put miss 6 in five days once to do a temp job for a friend.
    If I could get my specialist care for free I'd be happy with no bonus though.

    And after my surgery when I actually couldn't work they would only give me $10 a fortnight disability because my hubby earns more than $30k, (because he is not 12 lol)

    Wow!!! Good luck with gender scan!! What's your guess??

    Good luck Mel how exciting. Blue vibe or pink?

    Duchess it's a personal decision I think but life makes some turns that seem to shape choice I went back at 4 months with DS. I was a mess but I earn more an DF so he stayed home for a year. This time I've got a much better deal. Besides women are own worst critics in my opinion. We should stick together.

    Dh away for the weekend looking forward to moving in a slow weekend pace with DS.

    Sometimes I'd love to work especially when DD2 likes daycare etc, and at one stage we
    Considered hubby staying home, but I was a temp so although I earnt more it was
    Unstable. I wish the personal choice was supported more evenly by the government!!
    I'm considering something part time after this baby is a little bigger

    I've just had sad news that "my" sheep died we had her for ages then gave her to a friend when we moved from the country. She had complications with a Twin pregnancy. It's sad, she used to come when I called her and was just lovely. Sadly we were meant to visit first weekend in may and one of friends kids had dirarrea so we missed out on seeing her one last time, then we were meant to go today but again her kids have had high temp virus and my DD2 had serious febrile convulsion last year so we had postponed til next week.
