    Chopsticks, Molly's turned herself over from sheer changing-table rage twice and she's only two weeks. It's not deliberate movement but they can do it early if they're determined enough.

    The only benefit we get is Child Benefit which I was told is not means tested?

    I won't be claiming anyway, but if I was forced too, then it's good to know all the details.

    You not get working tax and child tax credits? Or you above the threshold?

    Child benefit isn't means tested :D

    I wonder if really rich people like millionaires, claim for their £20 a week!

    No, I don't get them. I've never applied. Never been advised too. You think I may get them? I work 16-30 hours per week from home, but I own my own home outright, which I think disqualifies me? If I'm totally wrong, then I should really start claiming.

    Didn't think Child Benefit was means tested, hence we get it :) Thank goodness for that!

    I bet some greedy rich people claim. Principle and all that!
