I don't know if this is the right place for this post, but any NEW mums who are expecting a new baby can apply for a grant to help with oosts for a FIRST baby.
Here is the grant:

It's not too well advertised and two of my friends missed out on this.

Intrigued to see you can get the grant if you're getting pension credit. If you have your first baby whilst getting your pension, I think you deserve a place in the Guinness Book of Records!Says James, in my opinion, there's nothing in this world

It says you or your partner so i guess the dad could be getting pension credit, although i guess it could be the mum the way things are going these days.
