Ooh I fancied this too Mrs F - didn't make the last one as LO only few days old then....

It starts at 2.30 -4.

I'm supposed to be meeting up with my NCT girlies but will tell them to go there too. Weather says sunny intervals with showers at 4pm. Back up could be at coffee shop petit.... (forgotten name)!

Yak- thanks for feeling the pain of my 45 min intervals! They are mainly when it is hits 4 or 5am - think he is going to be an early bird - which is not good for me as I love lie ins!

Alexa- I'm going to Peckham library breastfeeding - Freddie was tongue tied and had little snip at Kings 2 weeks ago so have to go toe Peckham library for check up. Was there last week too! Maybe see you in there!

Look forward to meeting you all - new ones and old ones - Snowboarder - how time has flown by - can't believe it was 10 weeks since your LO arrived, remember your new arrial post and it doesn't seem that long ago!

Just saw on the thread that the kids room at the Victoria pub on Bellenden rd has now been finished so would be a good back up if raining on thursday as has toys for those with toddlers in tow rather than sitting in a cafe. plus 25% off if you join their mum and baby club (free)

Hi


I hope you enjoyed today, sorry I couldn't make it.


My little one was a bit jaundice and we had to stay in hospital for 2 nights :(

We got home today at 1 and I couldn't find the energy to make my way to Peckham...


Hopefully I won't miss the next one :)

  • 2 weeks later...
We cant make Tuesday am, bigger little one has her swimming lesson then. Hopefully come along next time, every day this week busy as have friends visiting baby L pretty much every day. If something happening next week we have more free time :-)

I love the sliding scale of acceptability here - 1 baby - horrendously hard work (and it truly IS), then when have 2 just having the baby suddenly feels easy...then when you have baby 3, just having youngest 2 seems ok!!


Umm - Lucas, 10.30 tomorrow?

Also - if anyone is around on friday mornings and fancies meeting up with some mums with babies under a year - you could try Bumps and Babes at St Faiths on Red Post Hill. I used to go with my first, and went along last week with baby sb 2 and met some nice people. Also tea made for you and biscuits supplied!! From 9.30 - 11.30. Really good if you want to chat through all those sleeping/feeding/coming to terms with life with baby things too!! I won't make it this week but will def try and go again.

I'd heard about the Bumps and Babes group at St Faiths and was planning to go along and give it a go this Friday - had intended to go last Friday but time just diasappeared and we didn't make it down there... But will try harder this week! Hopefully see some of you there too. Is there a similar group at Goose Green community centre?


Will try and make it along to Lucas tomorrow too (but knowing me will be late!)

I hope all babies are faring well, and that everyone is enjoying the arrival of the weekend. In Yakling towers it is being welcomed by the Very Necessary and Wholly Obligatory Gin and Tonic.


How do people feel about instigating a regular weekly meeting time and place? Tuesday mornings seems to work quite well for those with babies and toddlers, but other suggestions very welcome. In terms of where to meet, I'll admit to a personal preference to try out the Electrical Cafe by Peckham Rye (which seems to have quite a lot of room for prams and buggies) or there is Lucas Bakery, or Green and Blue.


Hope that all babies are faring well and treating you all gently.

    • Since you’re clearly not experiencing what we are I’m not sure I agree with any of your points. I also asked for anyone else having a similar problem… it’s absolutely fine if you’re not but I’d appreciate less of the “go live your life”. There is no need to comment with that tone, it doesn’t provide us with any help for the matter. Nor is it polite. We’re a very kind family simply not wanting damage and don’t find the actions necessary. It’s been the same driver/delivery for a while and this never used to happen. I wouldn’t post this on the forum if it wasn’t getting so frustrating. Again, the kids and myself have kindly asked for this to stop a few times with no success. We all work hard for our living and would never want (nor are we trying) to rid someone of their livelihood. But similarly, I don’t find it fair. Please feel free to PM me if anyone has any advise or shares the same.  
    • And now we have the worst labour government in many many decades who, by moving to your position on the right, are ushering in a far right reform government. Well done you.
    • You implied he did a good job in your first paragraph when you said you would have hated to see Corbyn lead the country through Covid - the alternative being Johnson, presumably? With the results we all saw. Unite - you have a problem with unions? Who work hard to see that their members get a fair deal in their workplace? How exactly are these people and groups "all as bad as each other"? In what way? Labour "purging their party of the far-left" has given us a weak prime minister who has apparently deserted any "left" (aka caring for other people and having decent moral principles) leanings he ever had. Which is why people appear to be leaving Labour in droves and voting, or intending to vote, Green or Lib Dem or for an independent Left candidate. Starmer has shot himself in the foot, in my opinion. But what would I know. What worked?! I don't know enough about what you are talking about to comment, but "believing" you know the reason someone did something does not make it true. I don't believe that Corbyn ever got "starstruck" or "forgot about his politics", but if you can provide evidence that those things are true, then fair enough. I don't think you can, though.
    • I think you need to get a grip If it's who I am thinking of, she's a young black girl in her twenties, has braids with bright colours through them and - I suspect - works with her father. It's always the same man behind the wheel and he's older than her, always in the same van, so I'm assuming it's a father-daughter combo which, if it is, I think is rather sweet.  They hustle hard in a job that is poorly paid, has little prospects, is relentless and thankless. The fact that they have stuck it out since the pandemic says a lot about them.  I think she's a lovely girl, who's perhaps a little shy - but she'll smile or chat back if you make the effort with her. And I admire her for sticking with that job for so long. Perhaps she's just one of these people who's naturally a bit clumsy or bashes things, the same way some people are heavy on their feet when they walk. But I wouldn't dream of jeopardising her job because she closes the slams the gate and doesn't 'kiss' the ring doorbell with her fingers.  Perhaps she's being passive aggressive because you are. And perhaps she also wishes she got to spend her time worrying about potential damage to her letterbox or her gate.  As for your gate / letterbox - you're talking about hypotheticals. Has there been any damage? No. Then go and live your life and worry about it when it happens.  (apols we have the wrong person, but some of my points still stand).
