another recommendation for cafe provencel! :-)

YES YES YES!!!! I have 2 amazing boys one is gonna be 3 in May and the other is 7 months old! It's certainly a challenge but I wouldn't change it for the world. I love the fact that they will never be lonely, they will always have each other to play with :-)

Scumbags :X My sisters purse was nicked from her nappy bag in a coffee shop in Streatham, while she went to change the babies nappy one woman started talking to me about the baby (while doing this i failed to see the other woman take my sisters purse)Within the time it took us to finish our food and coffee's and go to pay, they had legged it and spent ?350 on her card?? Awful people out there!!

100% life saver!! VERY handy for sitting him in while i do the house work, or if im on the computer he is happy sitting in it!! :))

New mother im going to inbox you regarding plantar fasciitis Simone

I went out and bought a gro anywhere blind (used to be baa baa blackout blind), but ive been told by HV that you dont really need one, as baby should get used to sleeping in the daytime. You should make daytime a clear difference between daytime and night time, ie) let light into the room, play music, hoover etc in the day, and at night be a lot more quiet, and have the light off in the room where the baby sleeps. This was the best advice ive recieved as my 8 week old baby only wakes up once in the night, allowing my to have 6 hours sleep in one go!!! BLISS!! Good luck, Simone :))

Muslin squares all the way!! My mum bought me a parasol, but every time u change direction you have to move it! Pain in the butt, so muslin square are much better!! With cute colored pegs in dark and light green to match my pram!! :-)

also take a sugary drink or afew sweets, incase bubba is sleeping (or has legs crossed) a sugary drink will hype the baby up a bit, dont have the drink unless they tell you to though, but its good to have one at hand! Good luck and enjoy!! I had a baby boy 4 weeks ago!! Being a mum is the best thing EVER!!!!! :)) Simone,x

My all time favourite books when i was young were....The hungry caterpillar, The tiger that came tea, Burglar bill, and Dogger!! I cant wait till my son is old enough for me to read him these classics!!!

lol!! :)) like the bit about the free parking!! Brilliant! All i need now is to go into labour, and have my little man by his due date, and then im coming swimming!! I look forward to meeting some other parents and babies down there!!

Perfect! I will pop down there, but its good to know thurs 3pm is a definate!! Thanks :)

Thanks Barrybrains, Is this time table 100 % correct, as i read on netmums that it was incorrect? Im not due to have the baby till 22nd may, but want to plan ahead :))

Has anyone used the Hydrotherapy pool at Peckham pulse!? I hear its great for taking babies swimming in as the water is nice and warm (over 90?F) Does anyone know which days / times are mother and baby friendly? Thanks, Simone

Im 39 weeks (+1 day.....yaaaay) and ive put on 15kg (which is 2.5 stone i think?) ive been walking everywhere and eating rather sensibly, ive bought a running buggy, so intend to burn off all the excess weight through out the summer!!! Dulwich park here i come!!!! ;-) Simone

I was still doing a few clients (personal training) a week up until last wednesday. Im now finished work and im 39 weeks!! I would have pulled my hair out with boredom....or become even more of an internet shopping addict!! :)) Good luck, Simone

I quite non alcoholic cobra, found it quite smoooooth :))

Becks blue all the way!!! :)-D Also sainsburys do a great german made alcohol free aromatised sparkling wine!!! LUSH!! (Well it is if you havent drunk alcohol for 38 weeks!!!) Simone,x

OMG!!!! When i was in my 1st and 2nd trimester i had a serious citrus fruit craving!!! I was eating like 10 satsumas in the space of 2 hours!! And they had to be the lovely sweet ones from the vine!! Vals shop (opposite library) was doing lovely satsumas at the time....think she thought i was mad, the amount i was buying!! I am now 38 weeks pregnant, and love passion fruit!! So glad ive only craved fruit, no bad stuff!! :)) Simone

The best thing i found that helped me get pregnant was giving up alcohol 3 months prior to falling pregnant, i was on a 12 week training programme for the 'Run to the beat' half marathon!! I found out i was pregnant a week before the half marathon, but still ran it, me and my embryo (i was 6 weeks pregnant) completed the half marathon in 2 hours 12 mins...such an amazing buzz!! :)) Simone

Thank you ;-)

Thanks for the warning :-) Ah well, what will be will be I guess...little man has to come out some way or another, so I'm just gonna embrace the challenge!! BRING IT ON! Lol,x Simone

Hey there, I'm due 22nd may, so 4 weeks to go!!! Are you going to find out what your having ? There are 3 birthing pools at kings, so I've heard? With the water birth you can only have gas and air, but that's what I'm planning on, I use the term planning loosly!! As I have never given birth before, so may end up yelling "give me the drugs!!!!" Lol!! It'll be nice to go together, xx Simone
