Hope all is well.

Hi all


I hope you all had lovely weekends.


Great that so many people are up for the 1st Feb, I have counted 20 so far!!


Please let me know if I have forgotten anyone or if you would like to join us on the 1st. I was thinking of the Actress on Crystal Palace Road, however, they don?t take bookings so i am looking for another venue! I am going to make some calls later tonight and tomorrow so will update you all on the venue as soon as i can.


Really looking forward to it


Jessica

HypnoBirthing


hello,


I'm afraid I can't join you with a bump but wanted to post a quick message in case any of you are interested learning HypnoBirthing techniques to make your pregnancy and birth easier, calmer and more comfortable.


I won't bore you with too many details now but please do contact me if you'd like to find out more. I always focus on teaching you how to make your birth positive, whatever route your baby takes and offer a range of classes to suit all budgets and availability .... short affordable Practical Workshop, Evening Classes, Private VIP course and even an online course for those wanting to keep costs down.


Next Practical Workshops are running on Sat 4th Feb and 2 evenings Mon 6th/13th Feb.

I can also run a Workshop / Course for a group of you at a convenient time / place if you're interested in this.


I'd love to tell you more, please just give me a call, (I could also briefly pop in on Wed evening but only if it's appropriate - I don't want to intrude!)


warm wishes, Kristin :)

Hi Kristin


Many thanks for getting in touch and for sharing your details, I am sure this will be of interest to a number of us.


I don?t think it would be appropriate to come along on Wednesday as we like to keep the meet-ups as social as possible ? it?s all about getting to know each other. However, if anyone is interested in exploring Hypo birthing, I am sure they will be in touch.


Thanks again


Jessica

Hi All


In list making mode so have updated the full SB list as below - we're at a whopping 52! There's most definately something in the East Dulwich water!!


Jess - In terms of evening drinks on Wednesday, if you think Actress is going to be a squeeze we could try EDT as its bigger? Do you reckon we definately need to reserve an area?

Due date details needed from El Pibe and Clio731.

Hi all


So I think we should just stick to The Actress, despite not being able to book. I really can't imagine it will be that busy on a Wednesday night and it's a good venue for quick food. I will also try to get there as early as possible to reserve seating for 20 - no one is going to mess with me!


If you need to reach me my mobile it's 07974 161217.


See you on the 1st at 7.30pm at The Acress, Crystal Palace Road.

Alex and Aysh: glad that you can make it tomorrow night, I have added you to the list.


On a separate note, I was thinking that maybe we could invite husbands/partners to one of our next meet-ups? We could get a private area in one of the pubs and do some drinks and nibbles. You might think it?s a terrible idea but thought i would throw it out there for discussion!!

Hi ladies

Im afriad I am going to be a no for tommorow evening as my mobility completely gone downhill and am still going to attempt to do my parents eve. Hopefully will be able to make another daytime meet if husband can drop me off but if not good luck to you all over the next few weeks. My section is scheduled 5 weeks today although after seeing my midwife and physio today it looks like they may have to bring things forward a week so at least not long to go.


Jenny

Hello,

I may actually be able to pop along for a bit tomorrow night as well.

Our for my bday tonight and if husband stuck at work will be good to get out for a bit + the actress just up the road from me so will see what the day holds. Def a good idea to get husbands along at some point too.

Good luck surviving the parents' evening jenny!

Hi all,

Hope you feel better soon Jenny! Strange to think that many are getting close to their due date when I am not even 6 months pregnant yet (due date 17 May - long way to go)! And I've only recently got my bump.


I have been a no-show in the recent get-togethers but will try to make it tomorrow. Work is taking all my energy at the moment and just want the sofa when I get home.:-) But would be lovely to meet you all (even if it means missing out on One Born Every Minute - my hubbie will appreciate this!).


Sanna

Hi all,


I am afraid I will not be able to make tomorrow night either. I am just in too much pain in the evenings after work so will need to give it a miss. Roll on maternity leave - not long now.

I hope you will all have a lovely time - welcome to the newbees- and I hope to see you on another meet up soon. Can not believe that very soon some of our bumps will be babies - gulp


Jenny - I have sent you a PM


Caroline xx

    • I've noticed the foxes are very frisky at the moment, it's mating season. Perhaps it was a male fox who saw you as a danger to his vixen and wanted to see you off.
    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
