Lovely to meet you all too (and your husband, vch!). It was great to compare notes and hear very useful advice from sydneyswan who has been through this before. Sorry to those who couldn't join us today - look forward to meeting you all soon!


I'm definitely keen to do it again - and I very much liked the suggestion of meeting at one of the local pubs instead of the very squashy cafe. Today was the second Saturday of February, should we aim for the second Saturday in March as well? That would be March 10. What do folks think?

Hi ladies,

If you have lots to buy for your babies then why not head down to the mum2mum market in Balham on 10th March?

www.mum2mummarket.co.uk

There will be 20+ stalls selling baby and kids goods in fantastic condition at a fraction of the high street price

It's only ?2 on the door and everyone is welcome


10th March 2-4pm Balham Baptst Church, 21 Ramsden Rd, Sw12 8QX

You guys sound like you had a cool time yesterday :)


Sydneyswan, yes Goose Green playground idea on the 24th sounds great if you're still keen, as well as anyone else. My boy hasn't been to that playground for a few weeks as we've been frequenting Peckham Rye instead, so he'll love the change! We can do either the morning around 10.00 or afternoon around 3.30.

Hello ladies - is it too late to join your gang?! I'm due my first baby on 24th August so just squeeze into the summer (hopefully...). Sorry I missed the first meeting but keen to get to know other mums and mums-to-be in the area, so I'll be up for Saturday coffees in the future!

Hi Biddls, the more the merrier! I missed saturday meet-up too but will def try to make the next.


I had an unexpected but happy peak at baby again yesterday (thanks to being hospitalised with food poisoning/stomach virus - joyous!) - coming up for 15 weeks - the scan was so much clearer than just 2 weeks ago - lovely!


btw, I'm not normally such a 'sicknote' ;-)


Have a good week everyone xx

Details as follows:-

Please can you email [email protected] if you are able to make it.

Hi,


I'm so sorry that I didn't make it on Sat - I wish I even had a proper excuse but I don't I just fell asleep after putting my toddler to bed and didn't wake up. Will keep looking on here though. Toddler and I would love to meet at Goose Green playground on Friday 24th - given that neither of the times mentioned are when he is asleep the chances of me having an impromtu nap are minimal!


S.

9:30\10:00 on Friday 24th sounds great - see you there.


I can't make the 10th of March (as we are off on our hols that day - trying to get in a holiday before I get too pregnant) but hopefully you will all have a fab time (I will be desperately trying to entertain a toddler on a 4-hour flight.)


S.

Hope everyone is doing well this week!


I'll stop by the playground after yoga class on the 24th and see if you guys are still around. Won't be toting a toddler though, hope that's okay.


It'll be fun to meet at a pub in March.


This week's cravings: nachos! And for some reason, I'm smelling a phantom smell of a chocolate cake baking in my house.

Hi all,


I am due with number 2 on 20th Aug. I currently have a 16 month old girl. I would love to meet some other summer Mummies, especially those with toddlers already as I imagine second time round with a baby and toddler in tow life will be quite different!

We have swimming on a friday morning so might make the playground by 11 if anyone is still there, otherwise we should sort out another meet up soon.

Hello!


I haven't been on here for a while, so many more people! I would love to meet up on 10th March, pub sounds like a great idea. How's everyone feeling these days? I feel sooooo much better over the last few weeks, but am now randomly having nose bleeds, apparently normal!?!


x

Hello ladies, and welcome to the new joiners... nice to see some more of us with toddlers too!


On Friday morning I was thinking of getting my son into one of the baby swings at 10am, so anyone who turns up can join us there? I'm sure it won't take long until all the little ones are running off in different directions (so it may be difficult to keep a conversation going!)


Hope everyone is feeling well

Hi everyone


Nose bleeds sounds scary, Mavis. Nothing as dramatic for me but no bloomingmess in teh 2nd trimester; instead, I've been waking up at, ooo, 4am and not sleeping until, ooo, 7am by which point it's kind of time to get up.

That's very boring but I am somewhat comforted I don't have blood gushing from my nose (sorry! -hope it gets better)and I don't have a toddler (which I suppose is akin to pregnancy insomnia). Ah, things to be thankful for.


I might be back in London on March 10th for the weekend and will join you all if I can. Otherwise, I'm back the end of March and would love to meet up then before Easter overtakes us all. But that's probably too far in advance to put a date in the diary.


I'm 24 weeks soon. Can't blooming believe it. I look MASSEEEV though, which I'm sure is bloating as most of it goes down over night.


Have fun at Goose Green on friday.

No more nose bleeds yet :)) I know what you mean Ellie78, waking up at 4am awful and then you just doze off into a lovely sleep and the alarm goes!


Has a pub been decided for the 10th March? If not, would the Bishop be an easy choice?...


xxx

Hi Guys! I don't think there was a pub agreed for 10th. I think the Bishop sounds like a plan. My other suggestion would be The Plough (opposite Dulwich library) as they seem to have a few really big tables suitable for a gang of us (not sure how many we're expecting!)and don't tend to get too busy on a Saturday afternoon.

Hope the nosebleeds are holding off Mavis? I'm just easing out of the first trimester myself, so am looking forward to all this energy and RADIANCE i have been promised!! xx

The Plough is probably a better bet for the 10th March - especially if there's a number of toddlers to entertain too, Gavin (the manager) may even let us use the toddler stuff they have for the Plough baby club if we ask nicely ;-). I'd really like to be there and hopefully will make it - we're in the process of moving house (to acommodate new bub!).


How is everyone feeling? I'm feeling particularly enormous today - met for a coffee with my colleague who is 1 week ahead of me and she has this lovely neat (little) bump on her gorgeous size 8 frame and I look like some gigantic pregnant elephant-sized woman :(

    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
