Congrats-- Expecting Better is an informative and easy read. You could also join one of the antenatal clubs on Mumsnet. The veteran moms provide a wealth of insight and information and all the new moms can ask 'is this normal for this stage of pregnancy' questions.


There are also meet ups organised here on the forum depending on the season your baby is due so Summer Babies, Winter Babies etc. Do a search of this section.


ESPH do good pregnancy yoga and pregnancy pilates classes which I can definitely recommend.

If you are interested in doing birth preferably without hospital intervention then the best ever book in my and quite a few Mum friends of mine is Ina May's Guide to Childbirth. This was the book that convinced me I could do this... Even if you'd prefer a hospital birth it can really help one understand the whole process and what our bodies are actually capable of doing naturally.

Hiya

My book Pregnancy the Naked Truth is a good read. I teach Pregnancy Pilates in SE15 and if you sign up for a course you receive a free copy of the book. Let me know if you'd like details. Or check out the book on amazon Pregnancy: The naked Truth by Anya Hayes if you'd like to see more about it.

My good friend Zoe is a hypnobirthing teacher in Nunhead and Peckham, and her website is a great place to find inspiration for a positive birth www.hypnobirthingplace.com, she also does taster sessions at Bellenden Therapy Rooms.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! xx

    • I have had multiple jobs completed at my home by T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, and I wouldn't go to anyone else now. They always come at the agreed day/time, I have never been asked to rearrange. The jobs have always been completed to extremely high standards, and as a perfectionist myself, I appreciate this level of care and detail. I'm grateful of the clear up afterward too, leaving me very little to do after the job is done. I am always blown away by the speed and efficiency  - no waffle, no flannel, just sheer hard work from start to finish. In summary - a highly professional first class service. Don't hesitate to call T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, if you like excellence and trade people that will respect your home. 
    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect
