travelling from London to Melbourne with a baby - which airline is best?

I am travelling from London to Melbourne soon and I have a 13-week-old baby. I am from Melbourne and we are moving back permanently.
Any suggestions on what airline best caters for babies would be appreciated. I am travelling by myself (my husband is following on a bit after) so I need a direct route and I am not doing a stopover as I will have loads of stuff.

I am not so worried about the new cabin baggage rules, rather I want to know what airline will give me a bulkhead seat and and have good facilities. I am a bit reluctant to book with Qantas as I don't want to end up on a BA flight as I had a dreadful flight with them from LHR to Melbourne last Christmas when I was pregnant. I am also anxious in light of the whole foiled terror plot. I have flown so much and never been concerned before I had a baby and this has just heightened my anxiety.

Any suggestions/experiences/tips would be appreciated.
