Thanks Tess. Is the FB group a private group? Not announced on FB so don't want it to be shown I've joined on my news feed? Edit - as opposed to just a closed group? Fb groups confuse me. Some everyone can see you've joined but can't see posts, others they can't see you've joined. I'm making no sense sorry!


Pinkglitter - I finish this week. Feels too early now, feel like I could have done another week. What's your EDD? Have you checked out the spinning babies website?


Tess - I can't really complain, I've had a very easy pregnancy. I just need to stop slumping and crossing my legs.

It's a closed group so people can't see posts but they can see who are members and that the group exists. I could make it a private group but then only members can see it so people can't just ask to join.

I can change the name though - I will change the group name to 'Winter Club 2012/2013' that way you dont have to give anything away.

Hope this helps

Charlotte - hope you had a good b'day. If you join the fb group can you let me know if it posts it on the news feed. If it doesn't and doesn't go on my timeline I can join.


Sorry if it seems I'm being strange. It should have been my sil's due date tomorrow. They've been trying for years and had a MC at 12 weeks. Very difficult situation. I've avoided all pregnancy stuff so far.


Last early morning rush hour commute!

Thanks for setting up the group Tess, although I think I might be being a bit thick as I can't seem to find it (can I blame baby brain before she arrives?!).


I've put Winter Club 2012/13 into the search box at the top and it's not coming up - am I missing something obvious?

Hi ladies,

Can't believe I'm only just discovering this group! Thanks for introducing it to me, Tessa. I'm 33 weeks, looking forward to being on maternity leave soon and meeting some other mums to be in the area. :) Is there a date for the next meet-up?

Ramble ? my EDD?s not until 22nd Dec but they seemed insistent on trying the turning last week for some reason. Yes have looked through the spinning babies website thanks, my midwife suggested it too, the dangling off the sofa one is really hard though! Some good tips there though.


Charlotte ? will PM you!

Hi there,


A friend told me about the winter babies a couple of weeks ago .. I would love to come along to your next meet. I'm due towards the end of February. Reading that some people are really near there due date is very exciting and makes it feel very real!!


Look forward to meeting you guys

Hi I'm due this Saturday 8th December have recently moved into the area and really like the ED forum. We found our flat on it, I've found dentists, hairdressers etc! And now I've found a Winter babies thread I can't believe it. I lived in North West London for the past ten years in Queens Park and moved South East to be with fiance! I've worked right up to the end of the pregnancy which I've really enjoyed but only finished last Friday as freelancer:) would love to attend a get together if I'm not too late on the winter babies get togethers. Having the baby in Kings as have Fibroids so been advised that home birth really not a good idea. Very excited!!! All feels very surreal. Anyway hello to you all and thanks for reading my post x

Hi,


Friends from my NCT class informed me about the Winter Babies thread. My partner and I moved to ED in June of this year and we're expecting our first on the 1st Jan - so excited!


It's been lovely getting to know our NCT class and would also be lovely to get to know other folk in the local area. Will check out the facebook group, but thought it'd be nice to say hello.

    • That's actually why the Sherlock Holmes stories were so popular. There was so little crime people found it exciting to imagine robberies and murders happening in London.
    • Yes, because of course there were no violent robberies in the olden days. Pretty much no crime happened at all I believe through the entire Victorian era.
    • Hi all, Im a Southwark council leaseholder and live downstairs in a ground floor flat, there is one flat above me, it's a house with individual front doors leading from the street into the shared pathway. My neighbour told me he has had a ring doorbell installed, no discussion as to how I would feel being on camera everytime I go in and out or in my front garden. I was told it's only for deliveries and doesn't record and only activates when pressed, however I don't know this and I feel really uncomfortable everytime I'm out in garden or on doorstep talking to people. Everytime I walk in/out, it lights up and in the eve it has a  infra red  light. Now I've read up that as he said its only for deliveries, he could set it so it only activates when pressed, however it activates with its motion sensor. Had he said to me about getting it installed, I could have had the opportunity to ask about it recording etc but nothing except it's being installed and when I arrived home it was there. I don't like being horrible to people however I feel I have not been considered in his decision and I feel very uncomfortable as, some times I have to stand on doorstep to get signal for my mobile and I really don't like the idea of being watched and listened to. Has anyone got any advice as I'm beginning to get angry as I've asked about it once and was told it only activates when pressed. I believe this is not true. I know southwark council say you need to ask permission to make sure the neighbours are OK with it, I don't really want to go down that road but I don't know how to approach the subject again. They also put a shed approx 3 foot from my back room window, these places are built so my window faces their rear garden and there upstairs window  faces mine. They said it's there temporarily, that was over a year ago and it does affect the light, plus I'm hoping to sell up soon and the view from window is mainly a dark brown shed. When I've mentioned this, I was told they have no where else to put it, whereas originally they said its only temporary, Also the floorboards above are bare and I get woke early morning and at night, the thudding is so bad my light shakes and window rattles, so I mentioned this and asked if they have rugs, I was told when they get the boards re sanded they will get rugs, I should have asked if they could get rugs and just take them up when boards being done, which I would have done had it been me living above someone, their attitude was I can just put up with it until they are ready. so they had the floor boards done, and the workmen was hammering screws, yes screws, in the floorboards, I spoke to workmen to ask how much longer and they said yes, are using screws to make less noise! I could hear the cordless screwdriver, not an issue but for every screw there were at least 8 whacks, the owners had gone out to avoid the noise  so I  spoke to workmen as the noise was unbearable, the sanding, not an issue at all, people need to get things done to their home and I'm fine that on occasions there will be temporary noise. now I have a nice crack on my bedroom ceiling, I mentioned this to owner but no response, he said there were alot of loose floorboards and it will be much better now, not so noisy, as though I don't know the difference between squeaking floor boards and thudding, and nothing was mentioned re the crack or that they now have rugs, which if it were me, I'd be trying to resolve the issue so we can get on with feeling happy in our homes. so I'm feeling it's a total lack of consideration. these places are old and Edwardian and I've lived here over 40 years, had 4 different neighbours and it's only now the noise of thudding is really bad and the people before had floorboards but nothing like this. As you can probably tell I'm really wound up and I don't want to end up exploding at them, I've always got on with neighbours and always said if there's a problem with my dog, pls let me know, always tell me, however I feel it's got to the point where I say something and I'm fobbed off. I know I should tell them but I'm angry, perhaps I should write them a letter. Any suggestions greatly appreciated and thank you for reading my rant.
