Hello all,

Following discussions on this thread and this one, I am starting a thread for those of us who are expecting babies in the autumn. I know there are quite a few of us: me, Millsa, Smiler, Ladywotlunches, Buggie, Fuschia and others. I thought it could be somewhere where we can moan about our pregnancies, share experiences and advice, offer each other support and hopefully organise to meet up both pre and post birth. Of course anyone who is not due in the autumn but fancies joining in, and offering advice/support/ etc (Mellors, Gwod, anyone else?) is more than welcome!

Hope to be chatting with you all soon.

Edited to change to Autumn babies club so more people can join in

I should have added my second is due 14 September, I already have a 3 year old daughter. Let's wait to see who else joins and then maybe we can organise to meet up? Perhaps coffee/tea at a time when we are without existing little ones would be best to start with, and then we could also try to meet up with offspring and hope that they happily play together while we chat!

Hi Claire!

Nice to meet you all. I'm due 20th Sept officially, but I am pretty sure it will be a few days later.. Had my scan last week and found out it's a girl, I'm sooo happy!! (I have nothing against boys but we haven't had one on either side of our family for decades so wouldn't know what to do with one)
can i join you.... number 2 due at the end of august so a little early for autumn but who knows, i could be late, already have a 3 year old boy..... just in the process of finishing work (yippee!!) as i work for the nhs so have a whole years annual leave to fit in before mat leave starts in august....
Hi - I'm due in 4 weeks at the end of June and have a 2.2 year old boy. I'd be up for meeting up with second time mums due June/July/August. I'm around on Monday/Tuesdays. Are there enough of us to start a summer babies thread as an alternative to the autumn babies club?
Count me in - great for me that you are proposing a weekend as I work full time. Does that work ok for everybody else? I am due 12th Nov and also have a 4 yr old daughter. Would love to meet some other mums east Dulwich -am so looking forward to maternity leave!

    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
