Was lovely to see all the new mums and babies yesterday- you made it all look so easy!


Made me realise how soon it was all going to happen for me and that I'm not actually going to be pregnant forever. Eep!


Hopefully catch up again soon.

Hi all


Great to read about all your goings ons over the last week. Sounds as though you've all been busy!


Well, my little 'Sprout' finally made her grand entrance on Monday night (her due date) after 5 very long days of labour and induction. She weighed in at 7lbs 9ozs, so not the MASSIVE baby they were expecting. We're still in hospital for at least tomorrow, by which time we're hoping to have picked her name. Has all been a bit of a shell shock and we can't quite believe she has only been here for 36 hours, but I'm sure once we're back at home, things will make alot more sense!


Good luck to those due this week.

Great news Nicky, we were wondering whether there was news when we met yesterday. Glad to hear she has arrived safe and well, although sorry that you too had to endure a long induction (you weren't in bed 26 were you? It's jinxed!).


Take care xx

Congratulations Nicki! 5 days wow! You need a medal.


Sorry to miss the meet up. I was back at Kings for the breastfeeding consultant who thinks that as well as reflux (baby), I have oversupply (I knew). So tomorrow my partner is working from home so he can take the older one to nursery while I stay in for 4 days and lay back at every feed and try to space out the feeds... wish me luck that this might improve things and I can have a happier baby and some sleep!

Hopefully up to meet next week.

Well done Nicky.. Looking forward to name update!!


Taking toddler to DiddiDance at East dulwich constitutional hall at 10am tomorrow. It's very cute, music, ribbons, scarves etc

You can book a free trial if you fancy checking it out..


And I've been thinking about a regular weekly meet up?

Mondays are my toddler free day so coffee/cake would be lovely. Green and Blues was very quiet at 10am this week.. Is that good for anyone else?

Let me know if anyone has better suggestions.

Hi all. I'd also love a weekly meet up but will have my toddler all the time other than wed and Thursday mornings... Maybe we could have a couple of options to include toddlers or not!

W would probably be happy for a bit in G&B but I probably wouldn't get a chance to chat! It seems like most people are toddler free at the beginning of the week though by the sounds of it.

Hi all,


Mothercourage and I are deffo meeting up on Monday morning for coffees.. Venue to be confirmed but The Garden's do lovely breakfasts...?

Green and Blues didn't seem to offer anything but drinks last week.


So I'll suggest The Gardens from 10am on Monday if anyone else is interested.. Lots of space for buggies too!


Then a more toddler friendly option could involve park too.. I'm happy to meet up with toddlers later on in the week..


Keep us posted Laura ;)


Have a good weekend x x

Count me in for Monday.


Kate and I were discharged by our midwife yesterday which is great, but as she left I realised that having had her visit me weekly (sometimes more) since 19 weeks pregnant I'm going to miss her! On the plus side, my little fatty weighs a whopping 2860g now :)

I may drop by tomorrow morning. I need to go my Gp at the gardens in the morning and hubby will take toddler to the park. I had totally forgotten how much newborns can sleep, so I'm trying to make the most of it before she wakes up just in time for me to be left alone with the two of them!!

Hi All,


I will try and make it tomorrow morning for 10 too. Will have my first with me plus bump, which I wish was a baby by now but just doesn't seem to want to move. That said my due date is still not til Wed so I guess I can't really complain yet.

      How oversubscribed are the local schools? Will they be able to take on students who are currently privately-educated?

      By lollol · Posted

      Southwark and Lambeth may have some spaces but this is not the case of other London boroughs nearby particularly at secondary level. Also this is not just a London issue. There are many regions throughout the UK that have no school places available (eg Kent due to new housing developments, rural areas, Surrey, Guildford, Edinburgh etc). Just because you feel it doesn’t affect you, does not mean it’s right.  You also need to consider the proportion of foreign students in many of the private schools in the area which distorts the impression that local people can pay private school fees and suck up an additional £4-5k per child and per year. And sadly, the psychological and emotional impact on children is not even being discussed.

      Education not taxation - please consider signing this petition!

      By lollol · Posted

      Step in a child’s shoes just for one moment and think what it would be like to have to move schools in the middle of the year away from your friends, teachers, community etc. due to a political stunt. I doubt the money will even go into education. The UK will be become the only European country to tax education. Primary schools have some capacity where I live but I have enquired and there are currently no places for secondary school where I live. Again, so easy to be smug and say we should have pre planned a potential outcome 5 years ago when you live in your £2-3m homes next to the best state schools in Dulwich (like Keir Starmer!)

      Birth rate collapses sounds a bit like Armageddon.  It's a mixture of a decline following a bulge, where many schools had to increase intake, and families moving out of the capital due to high cost of housing.  Now that is an irony, that only wealthy families, many who can afford private schooling, can afford to live in many parts of London.
