Hi ladies,

I'm not able to make it today unfortunately. Have a fun afternoon!

I'd love to make the evening meet up, toddler bedtime depending. Think there are plans for the 14th? Not sure if location has been decided? But if not, the EDT used to always be a good bet with my previous summer babies group as they reserved tables. Although I think we also did the Bishop once.

Hi,

Lovely to meet some of you today! And your little ones for those who came. Some pleased the sun came out for us too!

Sorry that have missed those who couldn't make it. Hope to meet some more of you soon.

Have fun if you do meet on the 6th or 7th as Frieqs suggested. I'll try to make it but will depend on toddler bedtime!

Otherwise hope to make the meet up on the 9th in PR park.

Take care,

Jen

Hello!

Just wanted to clarify that we now have 2 dates in the diary for anyone that can make it. I know that not everyone can make the April date so adding the May date is an extra, not replacement. Sorry for any confusion!

1st date is 25th April

2nd date is 9th May.

Both at Peckham Rye park in the dog free area from 3pm-ish. I guess weather permitting! But maybe if it's awful weather we can swap to the cafe? Not that my toddler would mind, she loves a good muddy puddle :)

Hiya,

Oh sorry the 25th doesn't suit everyone. Let's make sure we arrange another date soon, maybe something early May?

Im hoping we still have nice weather for the 25th!

Looking fwd to meeting both 2nd timers like me and first time mamas too.

Hi ladies,

There seems to be a few of us now, so how about a meet up? Does Sunday 26th April suit? (Alternatively Sat 25th?) I could do from 3pm after my toddler's nap. Maybe a picnic/walk in Peckham Rye park?

In answer to Maria, there isn't a formal meet up schedule planned. With the group from my first baby we just met once a month and then arranged smaller meet ups as and when people could make it and that seemed to work well. We can always set up something similar, maybe a combination of weekend, evening and weekday daytime meet ups (to suit those working and those looking after LOs in the day).

What do you ladies think?

Looking forward to meeting you all soon!

Thanks Mellors. Yes really looking for something where toddlers are welcome rather than a cr?che but thank you for replying, appreciated!

Hello,

Anyone know of any exercize classes where toddlers are welcome. Daytime classes, something like yoga or pilates would be best, but also would consider something like excercicing in the park. Ideally SE22 or SE15.

Thx!

Hello,

I was wondering the same thing!

Congratulation! I am due in mid-Sept, and coincidently also have a toddler who is 20months. I can empathise with just how busy things are going to get as I can imagine our household will go through the same as you :)

I am part of the summer babies 2013 group and found the group a great support. It was lovely to make good friends who had a baby at the same time.

It would be lovely to meet you and other mums due in the Autumn.

Take care!

Hello James,

Please could you let me know who to contact regarding the phasing of traffic lights at the CPR/Adys Rd and East Dulwich Road junction. They are phased so that as a pedestrian you only have time to cross one side of the junction on the green man - and the traffic lights let both sets of cars go before the green man comes on again.

Many thanks

Hiya, am on a feeding marathon this morning so not sure I will make it :( If only I could master feeding while walking!

Oh no Ginny, sorry to hear that you're back at kings. Hope the time goes quickly and you're both back home again soon! Xx

oooooh congrats on all the new babies, well done Claire, Philippa, Ginny and BBear - and anyone else I've missed!!

Our little girl, Araceli, was born 12 July. I can't believe how fast time has gone since she arrived.

Thinking of all the Aug crew awaiting their new arrivals - hope you're doing well!

I can make Monday too but will be a bit late. Looking fwd to catching up and meeting the new arrivals.

Hi,

I also recommend Hollie at London Hypnobirthing. Her course was great, really helped us learn how to relax deeply and taught us the skills we hope to use at the birth. I feel so much more confident now about planning the kind of birth we want and know that whatever happens we will know a way to keep calm and relaxed. Hollie is also lovely and very supportive. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Hi there,

Yes booked the Clockhouse from 7pm, the area to the right as you walk through the door. Looks like we should have a good crowd tomorrow and not sure we'll fit on the raised area but I'm sure we can just spill over!

Hope everyone is well and enjoying the sun but surviving the heat? :)

Jen xx

Hi all,

Huge congratulations Laura! I hope you 3 are doing well!!

I hope everyone is having a good week?

I counted up about 13 or so people for Thurs so I have booked the raised area at the Clockhouse for 7pm. I am sure if more people join we can just spill out anyway!

Looking fwd to catching up with some familiar faces and meeting some news ones!

Jen xx

Sorry we missed you Sofia and Caroline! I didn't even think of homemade! :( but around all next week so shout if you are free again to meet up then!

Ginny, glad to hear all is ok now. Must have been a bit of a worry but glad to know is ok!

How do people feel about another big meet up too? I was thinking we can bring partners if they are interested - might be nice for our men folk also to meet some fellow dads-to-be in the area. How about the evening of Thurs 20th June (next Thurs)? Any suggestions on locations?

Jen xx

Hi Sofia,

Defo up for that! Glad you're ok tho not sleeping well is always a toughie! Yup on leave now and not having to commute anymore is soooo good. How about the park - might be nice seeing as we've been having some good weather?

xx

Hey, 21st at Clockhouse sounds perfect! Thanks for booking Philippa! I think the events manager of the clockhouse posted on here a few weeks ago - she may be able to recommend a good area inside.

Looking fwd to it!!

Jen xx

Hi all,

Lovely to see some of you last week!

A few of us were talking about another Junies meet up and making it this coming Sunday.

I notice that some dates in May have been proposed above and maybe we can do one of those too - but as one of us will be going in for a planned C soon, we don't want to leave the next meet up too late, so would like to go ahead this wkend too.

How about 10am at the Gardens again? Happy to try somewhere else if people fancy - just shout!

Jen x

Hi all, how is everyone feeling?

Yes EDT booked for Tues 16th at 7pm.

EDT would like rough numbers so I thought I'd see who is up for it so we can let them know. Here is who was have so far...

Sals12

aqua-anya

astrid83

lstickler

PhillyIlly

Buffnutter

HollySamantha - it's the Tues 16th rather than the 19th, hope you can make it!

Who else is up for it?

Jen x

Hiya, lovely to see you Junies on Sun! And that you enjoyed your lunches. Still can't believe we had to scrape snow off the car before we left London... Yeeey Laura, hope to see you next time!

Yes 16th April at the EDT is booked, but they would prefer to do it month by month rather than booking it for May onwards too (which makes sense). They'll give us the stage again, hope that was ok for people? We will have to give them a ball park on numbers a couple of weeks before, but we can just post about that nearer the time.

Hope you're all having a good week?

Jen x

Yeay!! :) Thanks so much Sofia! Looking fwd to seeing you guys then. Jen x

Looking fwd to tomorrow! It's anytime from 7pm.

For the June meet up, I'm good for Sun 24th too if that works for most of the June ladies, and we can arrange another one soon after! Caroline, maybe we should pick somewhere child friendly and those already-mums can bring their little ones, what do you think?

Jen x

Hi there,

Thanks for the post Hollie!

How is everyone doing this week? A few people have mentioned a separate June meet up so I thought I would see who would be interested and get the ball rolling on picking a date and venue. What sort of thing works for June mums-to-be or mums-to-be again, would an evening or a wkend be better?

How about towards the end of next week or the wkend of 23/24th March?

Jen x

Hi all,

Had a few discussions with some of you and have booked for EDT on 19th, the guy there said he thinks it would be better to be on 'the stage' - the raised area to the left at the back. Basically there is footie on again so they would have the big screens up but as there's no UK teams left in the EU league they don't think it will be that busy.

Have booked a table for June and another one for Jul/Aug. He's called it the PMG (I said we were pregnant ladies but so I think he's decided to call us the preg mothers group! haha)

Hope that was ok with all?

Still happy to do a smaller June meet up - Maybe we can go for the place on Bellenden Rd as you suggest Asrid or the Rye or the Clockhouse if it's open again - anyone know?
