Thanks everybody for your advice, I've obviously got a lot to sort out! x

Firstly, you will be entitled to tax credits, and possibly housing / council tax benefit, once the baby arrives.

Secondly, can your OH look for a better paid job? At the moment he's on little more than minimum wage.

Also If you haven't bought too much for baby already just get the basics and buy the rest as you need it, with my first I spent so much money on baby items I thought I would need but never got used, and to be honest second time round most stuff was second hand, loads of mums think nothing of buying several pushchairs, you can pick up nice almost new pushchairs for quite cheap on local selling sites. Also might be worth checking out any local NCT nearly new sales they are a great place for baby bargains! Hope this helps
