Heres a tip - you don't need to go to centrelink if you have internet access. Just jump on the family assistance website, fill in the forms there, and then take your baby bonus form into medicare and they will do the rest for you. I haven't set foot in Centrelink and have received my money.

Kingfubecca - I hear you about centrelink. It took me 2 days but I have finally lodged the form. My issue seemed to be that I have never in my life received any form of payment from centrelink so I then had to fill in a partner form as well, but in doing that I was providing info I new was irrelevant given we are not entitled to family tax benefit b. Anyway form is lodged so hopefully we receive the baby bonus soon.
We had a good night last night, Georgie is waking up every 3 to 3.5 hours for a feed but during the day she is not sleeping. She starts out happy enough to lay in her basinette but after a while she gets unsettled. Not really sure what to do.
I breast fed for the 1st time outside the house today. DH and I were at the local shopping centre when Georgie became really unsettled so found the family room and fed her. The family room was really quite nice and the other parents in the room were lovely, asking how old Georgie was and basic info. It was a good experience for the 1st time. Mind you in was in the parents room so it was not for everyone to see.
