Spring babies club (due in March, April, May 2011)

[simonethebeaver]

Hi

I'm expecting my first baby at the start of May. Still working full time, but would love to come to a future meet. I'll keep an eye on this thread!

[hayesgrover]

Count me in as well ladies!

[miss_indigo]

I am expecting my first on 3rd March. Will also be keeping an eye on this thread for future meet ups!

[paps]

Me too - sorry couldn't make Friday as my little one has not been well.

But would love to meet up next time.

I'm due on the 15th May and will have a 16.5 month gap between the two of them!!

[snowboarder]

So shall we meet up again? I'm in dire need of moral support - due 5 wks today, size of a small planet, lost my ankles, maternity clothes mysteriously now too small, in sole charge of an energetic toddler who has NO clue about above and what is about to happen to him, and who loves to run. It's too late to change my mind, yes?

And I can't sleep. Too uncomfortable. Shall I stop moaning now?!? Anyone else?

Happy for a daytime toddler friendly meet or civilised evening...what do people think?

[H4]

Quite understand snowboarder :o) my tum feels like it's tighter every minute and even a wander round this park this morning was an effort!

can you or anyone else make it for a coffee/ coffee in a park with soon-to-be-surprised toddlers on Monday?

Am free most of the day and always happy to be out :o) x

[Al&Em]

I'm still working so can't make any daytime meet-ups... Shall we arrange another pub gathering too before the March babies start arriving! How about another Friday night - perhaps 11th or 17th? At the same place - the Montpellier?

[Sicilia]

Hi

Still working too and due at the beginning of March so meeting up again would be great! Free on both the 11th and 18th so whichever works best for everyone?

[mrs f]

Either eve suits me.... will be nice to see all the bumps again!

Montpellier is good for me too

[Yak]

I could make either 11th or 18th, too. There is the NCT second hand sale on 12th February on Red Post Hill if anyone's going to that so a meet up the night before might be quite fun in a sad, geeky way. Whaddja reckon?

And apologies for those who have sent PMs in the past week about the Facebook group - been away on Last Ever Grown Up Civilised Holiday but I will be on the case this weekend!

[mrs f]

Oh that sounds good, the MIL is down that weekend for some deccorating and baby shopping so i might start her off with the NCT sale!

[Emma11]

Lovely - can make either 11th or 18th as well. And am also heading to the NCT sale on 12th so may see some of you all there too !!

[Annie80]

Hi there, as most of us can make both days, shall we make it the 11th at the Montpellier at 7 pm?

[Yak]

Sounds good to me. Looking forward to it!

[Emma11]

Sounds perfect - see you all then!

Hi ladies - I am due with my first on April 11th and would love to get to know some local ladies. I'm booked on the NCT Nunhead class that starts on 3rd march - anyone else on that one? We're away this weekend and so I will miss both the meet up on Friday (which is a bummer as I live on the next street over) and the NCT sale. Boo. Better planning needed on my behalf next time. Count me in for a meet-up in March then (seems to be vaguely monthly)?

I'm working until 24th March and already starting to get itchy about what I'm going to do with myself afterwards for the long weeks until baby-Mo makes an appearance. Any suggestions from those of you who've been here before?! How do you balance tiredness and boredom?! I have bought the entire boxset of the West Wing but think even I might get tired of Rob Lowe if I watch it all and never leave the house.

Also, is anyone doing any pregnancy yoga? I am doing one near to work but thought I might start another one nearer to home so that I can carry on closer to the birth. And has anyone does the birth prep class offered by Sitaram? My husband thinks it looks hideous but I'm looking for all the help I can get!

Finally, we're going on the Kings tour this Thursday. Anyone else going/been?

Have fun on Friday and I'll look forward to meeting some of you soon

Hi,

I have just moved in the area (Nunhead)and due on 8 April. Would love to meet other mums so will keep an eye on the post. Unfortunately, I can't do next Friday - it's my birthday so going out for dinner! I am working until 25 March so hope to be able to join after work.

Jennie, I would like to visit King's this week as well. Do I need to book to go on Thursday? And if not, at what time is it?

Many thanks,

Karine

[j-mo]

Hi Karine

You don't have to book to go on the tours - just turn up. Its at 6.30pm in the Nightingale Birthing Unit which I think is on floor 3 of the main Jubilee building. Its every Thursday and they also have one on an afternoon but I can't remember which one as I couldn't go. I rang them to check and they were v helpful.

Maybe see you there!

Jennie

[happy82]

I have only just seen this, I wasn't able to make the first meet up as I was on holiday but would be keen to pop along this Friday. Due with my second in less than 6 weeks, see you Friday night!

[Karinep]

Hi Jennie,

Thanks for the info. I'll definitely join tomorrow. Hope to see you there!

Karine

[Al&Em]

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow :) Is anyone bringing their other halves along? Mine is keen to meet other gonna-be dads, so might pop in for a drink or two... Also, what time did we say? Was it 7.30?

[BellendenBear]

We're off on holiday so won't make it tomorrow. Look forward to seeing you next time. Have fun!

[Yak]

Al&Em - I can be there from 7.30 onwards for an hour or two - but it will just be me as mine is working...

[ClareC]

Was hoping to make this evening but my baby has been unwell this week, she seems to be back to normal now but we haven't had the all clear from Kings yet and I wouldn't want to risk me potentially passing something nasty onto pregnant women!!

Have a great evening and fingers crossed I see you all at the next meet!

[snowboarder]

Hello sadly I too have a vomiting toddler and am SO huge that I am getting alarmed looks from passers by, so think will sit this one out. Baby is due on 1st March but I need it to come SOON!! Have a lovely evening....
