If you're not feeling thin don't what ever you do go and try on jeans in H&M. I went to get maternity jeans a few months ago when I was at the 'just looking fat' stage and feeling horrible and I tried jeans in my normal size, couldn't get them past my knees! I tried a size bigger and had the same problem. Really didn't need that.

After spending the whole day up and down Oxford St feeling swollen and sick I realised that most stores don't stock their full maternity range and most stuff can only be got online.

I got some fairly nice, cheap stuff from Matalan, and jeans and basics from Next.

I also picked up some fat lady style tunic tops, not actually materntiy that I have just lived in now that the bump is like a small planet and several of my maternity tops are not long enough to go over it and reach the top of my jeans.

Kids really do play up for their parents!

I just went to Bromley and managed to get some Maternity clothes in Pumpkin Patch, Next, Mothercare ( which was rubbish and fell apart after a few washes) and H&M. Have to admit that none of them were my style and I was suprised at the lack of choice we have.

      Dulwich leisure centre? Zumba or Pilates there? I go to Zumba at forest Hill Pools... Pay as you go membership and its very inclusive all ages shapes and sizes. Ditto I find the leisure centre the same..I'm mid 60's by the way. I prefer gyms to schools..the rooms they do the classes in are custom built.

      Well, this is sad news.  Hopefully it won't go down the same path as The Palmerston when it changed hands.  That is from great to dismal, literally overnight.

      And no queues at 1130 yesterday. Maybe everyone's had enough and switched to the Yodel and Evri app.

      Hi there guys, I hope you're well.  I've recently done a term of Dance Yourself Fit, which began with a class at the Harris Girls Academy on the Nunhead side of the Rye, then transferred to the Charter School for Girls up by the old ED hospital. It's been so good and all the women attending have loved it too, but due to exams being on next term the classes are being discontinued in East Dulwich, much to our disappointment. They're moving them to Streatham, but that is not convenient for me and many of the others. This is a link to their site in case anyone is interested though: https://www.danceyourselffit.com I'm now looking for a replacement class that's not too expensive, keeps me moving energetically for an hour and is local and hopefully less than a tenner per lesson (this was about £72 for 8 classes I think?). Does anyone know of anything? I'm also looking for low-cost pilates classes to join too, if anyone has any recommendations for those too? Very best,  Eleanor  Also, just to add, what's been so nice is that it HASN'T been in a gym with lots of lively young lithe gazelle like creatures hopping about. It's been extremely inclusive for women of all sizes and shapes and really nice that it's been in schools not gyms. Anyway, keeping my fingers crossed!
