2011 Australian Baby Bonus News Site.

Are you better receiving the Australian Baby Bonus or do you get a better financial result with the Paid Parental Scheme. It can be complicated, see below for details.

How is the Baby Bonus paid?

The baby bonus will be cut from $5400 to $5000 from September 2012, and frozen at that level for a further three years, until then the Baby Bonus is paid per eligible child in 13 fortnightly instalments. From 1 July 2011, customers eligible to receive Baby Bonus will get a higher first instalment of $879.77 and 12 fortnightly instalments of approximately $379.77. The higher first instalment of Baby Bonus will assist with the upfront costs of having a new child.

Default Still Waters - a real mums book
I just wanted to let everybody know about a fabulous :dance::dance: new book I've just finished reading called Still Waters. I went to a session at the Sydney Writer's Festival (thanks hubby!) called 'Motherlove' and heard the author Camilla Noli speak about it. It sounded so interesting I had to read it.
OMG! What a book! It so exactly captured all the emotions about being a mother it was freaky. I couldn't stop reading and finished it that night. If you like Jodi Picoult on steroids then this is for you!
Has anyone else read this? I have to know - what do you think happened to her son? I've got to talk to someone about this book!

Hi, you have convinced me to get the book. Must be good if you read it cover to cover in a day. Can't say I have even heard of her, then again, I tend to read Patricia Cronwell novels, which aren't quite novels about the emotion of being a mum!
