ok sounds good, yes I was going to walk to one of the parks anyway for my daily overdue waddle to try and bounce the baby out....

See you all then in the cafe, fingers crossed the weather is nice still, it would be lovely to meet your (big) little one bellenden bear!

Hi girls :)


Only just joined this thread.


I am due 6 May, having a c section at Kings... and having a girl!


Anyone due around the same date?


It is my firt and I don't know many people in the area so happy to meet for morning coffees, lunches, walks ect.


I could meet anytime on Friday 8 April or Monday 11 April.


Anyone around? With or without babies ;)


Alexa

Hello, I have a two week old baby boy, my first. I'd love to meet up with Mum's in the area, please let me know ... Alexa I am going to Townley Road Breastfeeding cafe thing this Monday, but I could meet up the week after ... not on a Monday. I am up for any coffee mornings etc.


Jenni

Hi Jenni and Alexa,


I think the silence might be down to a few people giving birth at the moment or being induced! But subject to any surprises, I should be around this week. I could make Tuesday morning if that's good for others?


Looking forward to meeting you, and congratulations Jenni on the new arrival!

Hello spring baby ladies, just to let you know baby f arrived yesterday, 13 days late after 3 sweeps, 2 acupuncture sessions, gallons of rasperry leaf tea, too many curries & pineapples to count, lots of long walks, driving over speed bumps, twice daily clary sage oil tummy massage etc. I gave up on it all on sat & accepted we were going to have to be induced on mon so went out for fish & chips & mushy peas & low & behold along he came yesterday in a lovely home birth! Yey!

Hope to catch up in a few weeks, with hopefully some of our other new arrivals x

Me too...!


Anyways - would any of the toddler encumbered amongst us (or anyone else who doesn't mind keeping their beady eye out for small rioting people) fancy a take away coffee park meet one afternoon after nap? My coping strategy for life with two is to get out as much as possible but I am struggling on my own at the parks with toddler and baby (imagine runaway small boy with ball/need to chase/baby in pram scenario) and feel that strength in numbers may help....

Snowboarder, I could possible do Friday (unless I have a baby of course, something which I have just about given up on). I am still a bit traumatised from waddle-chasing my runaway toddler across Peckham Rye last week and trying to carry her, bag, football, dolly in pram etc to get to my midwife appointment. But I will give it a go, perhaps more effectively as a baby watcher rather than toddler chaser. Or perhaps they behave better in packs?

Will also be at the Wooden Circle thing tomorrow, weather permitting.

Thanks ladies, I feel so lucky to have had him at home & truly thought we wouldn't make it which makes it all the more special

don't worry bb, she will come in her own good time, just relax and don't reply to all the messages from well meaning friends & family asking if she has arrived yet! Oh & perhaps try the mushy peas at sea cow !-)

Thanks again snowboarder for all the pillows etc! They were really handy!

Hope to get out & about at some point over the next few weeks & hopefully we will have a mini yaklett & mini bear as well by then :-)

Good luck ladies x

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
