Answer:
If you are living with your partner, and he is in full time employment, then you cannot claim any more Benefits.

You're entitled to go and find a job.

Go to the local jobcentre and ask, they might try to tell you you're entitled to nothing if your boyfriend works, if you say you're a single parent then they'll give you something. Income support is what they'll give you, health in pregnancy grant of £190, sure start grant of £500 and healthy start milk tokens, those grants are for in pregnancy, look them up, i don't know if they apply for ireland too.

What have all the websites and agencies that you have phoned said? Probably you're not entitled to any benefits as you have a partner that you are living with. Does the father of your son not pay any maintanence? When your 2nd child arrives obviously you will get extra child benefit. And possibly you and your partner will be able to claim child tax credit.
