Hi, Jenny- sorry just saw your post re 4:30pm yesterday! Am around this afternoon around 3pm if anyone fancies meeting up xxx

I'm around in the afternoon tomorrow - don't think we've met yet Jenny? Nat, also around this afternoon if you fancy a stroll although weather not looking so great. Welcome at ours if just a few of us or could grab a coffee somewhere? Laura x

Been struggling to get Rebecca down for a nap and still babbling away so looks like I may miss you guys. If she has a short one I'll venture out and see if you are still around. Otherwise if anyone fancies a Coffee or walk this afternoon let me know. Laura and Rebecca x

Rebecca only just woken up so will come along to the clock house xxx

Keen on bea's baby bop. Think she does a Saturday one at the plough which is near us. Figure I should try it out before subjecting my husband to it on a Saturday morning! Laura and Rebecca x

That works for me xxx

Thanks for the welcome and pointers. Will take a look at edtots too. Very much up for any or all of the suggestions above! Laura x

Poor thing. I had exactly the same with my little one seven months ago. The latching does get better. One thing to watch is I ended up getting thrush in the breast ducts immediately after mastitis. The antibiotics can make you vulnerable to fungal infections. This is very painful especially when latching so maybe keep an eye on that. Good luck and well done for persevering. I got off to a terrible start but now it's the most natural thing in the world xxx

Hello, I have just moved to East Dulwich and was keen to meet some mums with babies around the same age as mine (Rebecca who is 8 months old). A friend told me about your group and wondered if i could come along to one of your meets? Appreciate I am a late joiner (!) but keen to meet other mums and find out about classes etc in the local area. Kind regards, Laura x

Thank you to the original poster. I agree we live in London and sadly these things are not uncommon or a surprise but it is always good to increase awareness and vigilance in the community.

I feel your pain- we had the same problem with our little one and tried everything to combat wind. I tried infacol, coleif ( expensive but can get on prescription from GP), cutting out foods that cause wind as was breast feeding, elevating head end of cot slightly.It does eventually pass. We found the baby bjorn bouncer seat was the best thing other than feeding to settle her. For the 'gingerly transferring' we found a great product called the snugglebundl http://www.snugglebundl.co.uk/ (watch the video). Our baby is now 6 months and I was planning to post along with other bits for sale. PM me if interested! I also had an NCt friend about a toy sheep that you Put in the cot and makes calming sounds and felt it worked. http://www.johnlewis.com/easidream-ewan-the-dream-sheep/p231141258 . The things we try!! Hope it passes soon x
