Dear Mums-to-be of Spring Babies


Please join us for an informal, drop-in Pregnancy Group in Peckham Rye Park at the Children's Playroom.

(The old 1 o'clock club next to the Cafe). Run by Kings College Hospital Midwives and Ivydale Children's Centre.


Mondays, 11.30-1pm (term time only).


An opportunity to meet other mums-to-be and chat to the midwives in a relaxed environment. Feel free to bring your maternity notes if you have specific questions about your situation.


For more information call Anna on 07891 468667 or just turn up. Look forward to seeing you there. Welcome from any stage of pregnancy. Children also welcome.

Hello there everyone,


I've only just moved to the East Dulwich area so have just found this forum today and was chuffed to see a thread for first time mums :). I'm due on the 1st May - still teaching full time and beginning to struggle staying enthusiastic on my feet now, but would love to meet some other first time mums expecting spring babies as I literally don't know anyone.

If anything is being arranged I'd be very keen to meet. Hoping all mums to be are doing well. Look forward to hearing from you :)

Hello Spring Babies Ladies, looks like there's a meet up this week, and I'd like to let my wife know, she's due April 22nd, but hasn't been in ED long, and we were out of London for the Feb meet up, so she would like to come and say hello and meet some of you this time. But before I pack her off, I'm just checking I've understood it right and you're on for 10:30 this Wednesday 13th in the cafe in Dulwich Park? Many thanks, Dave.

Hi

This group sounds great and would love to come to a meet up. Not able to come in the week until the maternity leave begins at Easter .

I know how you feel B I'm still teaching full time and also due 1st may.

Look forward to meeting some other new mums in the area . Hannah

I can't make it either... I know it might sound a bit wimpy but the weather completely terrifies me! I have been so ill constantly in the last months and I am finally feeling better.

Really sorry I was actually really looking forward to it.

Hummm - with so many cancellations I'm wondering if this is still on? Is anyone actually coming? My son and I are down with colds and coughs (like the rest of London it appears!) but would show up for a little while if we are guaranteed there will also be others!


Hope everyone gets better, at least there is a bit of sunshine out there today!

I was sorry to miss the meet up today as I had planned to go... but then got a last minute case at work to do. Would much rather coffee in the park!


I really hope to make the next one - I am still working on and off until 12 April and we have also had to move temporarily back to North London whilst the worst of our building work is being done (terrible but predictable timing). Therefore not so easy for me to come over during the week although we are commuting with my daughter to her nursery in Peckham Rye!


How about another weekend date? Or can I suggest another meet up during the week, maybe Lordship Lane/Bellenden Road or even Crooked Well in Camberwell? I could do a day later next week?


Hope you are all well and look forward to coming back to South London (which now feels like home!)

    • I've been there for lunch a few times and the home cooked asian food (as part of Sweat Dreams cafe) is genuinely great and a must try. I think the food side of the business has been slow to be noticed but people are now realising what is actually hidden in plain sight.  As for the Aroma Lab coffee ... it is excellent, they are very welcoming and friendly (and unpretentious!). This Australian coffee snob is mightily impressed!!  
    • Do you mean put out things like live mealworms for the parents to feed to the young? Or that the parents will eat the food you put out and therefore can save "wild" live food for the young rather than eating it themselves? On another matter, several weeks ago I moved my bird feeders to another part of my (very small) garden because the area they were in was totally scratched up by pigeons, and I lost several plants I had had for decades and was very fond of 😭 It is now just bare earth with no plants,  and I've got to start again. And block up a fox hole in one corner. I suspect the foxes are tunnelling beneath the garden, as there are several holes. I hope the ground doesn't suddenly collapse beneath me! I cleaned everything and put in fresh seed, but so far all that has visited the new area (that I have actually seen)  is one rather fat sparrow. And a cat. Sitting hopefully beneath the feeders 🤬 No goldfinches (I have a niger seed feeder and have seen the occasional goldfinch in the garden) and no tits, though I've heard both blue tits and great tits nearby. Plus the flock of sparrows who used to come and seem to have deserted the garden. Hopefully they will find the feeders. I've cut back some of the greenery, which doesn't help, as they have less shelter. 
    • So when will we find out? Is it going to be a big reveal on some specified day? If not, why can't you tell us now?! (I'm presuming you mean the new boss of Franklins. It would be too much to hope for that the Palmerston had a miraculous return to one of its better past incarnations. Never mind the food, they could bring back the lovely quirky painted column things of over twenty (?) years ago, and remove the hideous "art" that has sadly been installed. I feel really sorry for the staff, because it can't be just my partner and I who rarely go there any more. I suppose the only hope is that it does so badly that it changes hands again and that the new hands have better taste. Sorry, all off topic.)
    • I would hope that is extremely unlikely. If people accidentally vote for someone, that's their own fault, isn't it?
