Child benefits 1st child

Hi First post!!
My wife and I are expecting our first child in december!!
I was wondering what we were entitled to claim benefits wise as everything ive looked at is no longer claimable (presumably tory party's actions!) but if your on jobseekers you can claim lots
We have a joint income of £34,000, we pay a mortgage on our home and dont claim anything else or have any disabillities.
so basically what can i claim not being on job seekers?
Thanks in advance

Child benefit for one child = £20.30 per week. Enjoy.
Edit - maybe some child tax credits too.0 -

OH and I are higher rate taxpayers and we get a whopping £20 a week child benefit. It felt so good to get a free £20 note!0
