[Moderator Caroline]

Hi all,

We were advised of confusion over previous threads and the title. All amended now and previous thread removed to avoid confusion. Apologies, we are still finding our feet since taking over from our previous and much loved moderator. Thank you all for your patience and congratulations on your pregnancies!

Hi, I'd like to join too! It'd be great to get in touch with people in the local area having babies at the same time. I live in West Dulwich and I'm due in October with my second. I'd also welcome any advice on how to prepare for baby number 2 (my daughter will be about 20 months when baby comes) - can anyone recommend any good books?!

Me too! Due with my second on 14th October (snap on the due dates JRK!).

Jaymey, no good book recommendations I'm afraid, although I saw a second baby class advertised on the East Dulwich Mums facebook page which might be worth looking into if you're after some helpful tips xx

[JayMey]

I will look out for it - thank you!

Hi

I joined the previous Autumn babies thread but think that has now disappeared. I'm due with my third (help!) on October 8th. Looking forward to meeting you all. I loved these groups with my other two.

I'd love to join too. I'm due on the 11th October with my second. I'm based in nunhead.

Is anyone good at Facebook? Might be useful to set up a (secret) Facebook group as I certainly find it easier to see messages on there rather than checking the ED forum...?

Hi all, I would love to join the group too. I am due with my first on 7th October.

Great to see there are quite a few of us expecting babies in the autumn!

Looking forward to meeting you all!

[tarafitness]

Anyone due in September? I'm thinking I might potentially sneak into this group, as my next child is due on the 27th of August (and my 3 year old was 6 days late) :-)

I'm hoping for a 1st September arrival date, but I know that in reality, babies come when they feel like it :-D

Hi!

I'm due end of October with my second and keen to meet up with others in the area. My son will be 5 once this one comes along so I feel like I'm a new mum again to be honest - forgotten pretty much everything about the early months....

Looking forward to saying hello

Ellie

I'd love to join this group too, my second is due October 26th and we live in Honour Oak. Would love to meet people due around the same time!

Hi all, I am part of the Autumn Babies club 2016 and loved it so thoroughly recommend!

We have also recently set up a blog and Twitter account to share all of our crazy stories and advice if you live in the Peckham Dulwich area. Good pubs with changing facilities, good events etc.

I hope it helps you and feel free to ask for any advice!

Hi all, just found out we're due our second on 31st October so hope to join this group! I live in Forest Hill behind the Horniman.

Ellie - my daughter will be 5 years by then so in the same boat.

Hi everyone

I was thinking that it would be nice to arrange our first get together. I think most of us will now be 12 weeks +. What do people think? A week day evening would be best for me. Thoughts?

Jessica xx

[Howl]

I'd be up for that. I can do weekday eves, although they are harder with babysitting issues etc. Definitely cannot do Wednesdays as other half doesn't get home until much after 10. My preference would be weekend afternoon, but obviously will fit in with what the majority can do.

(Glad there's someone else in the larger than average age gap, Alison! We told ours last weekend. He's 'processing' - i.e. didn't really have a reaction apart from saying he wanted a brother, has since not mentioned it.)

Anyone else enormous already? Only c. 16 weeks but looking more like I did at 20+ with the first one. People are asking the twins question, even those who know I've had two scans: no, seriously, I don't think a high ranking research centre like the FMC at Kings would actually miss one at 12 weeks. C'mon.....

[mika1336]

Would be nice to meet up, I can do weekdays anytime till 3, after that I have a lovely team of 3 with me :). I am happy to meet during weekends but as my hubby works most of the time will be with my lovely team of 3 too :))

Dominika

[JRK]

I'd be up for an evening in the week or weekend afternoon. Be lovely to meet you all.

Jess

[EmilyLD]

Lovely idea - an evening in the week or weekend afternoon works well for me too. xx
