Living in ED with 3 month old

[YellowTimer]

Recently moved to the area & wondered from the sheer volume of baby & child activities - what the best ones might be in terms of value and meeting people

All suggestions welcome ...

You are in the right place for baby activities. Try to join the autumn babies club if you havent already as you will meet mums with babies very similar in age to yours.

Www.edtots.co.uk is brilliant, i find myself logging on most weeks trying to find a new group i havent tried before. As your little one is so younf the groups are more for you than them if that makes sense.

Try the crooked well crumpets on a friday morning - usually a lovely group of ladies with often young babies. Once your baby is abit older it may be fun tO try some activity based stuff but i found my baby was a sensitive little soul and easily got abit stressed out in big groups when he was younger.

How about baby massage or swimming?

baby swimming at peckham pulse was good but think they need to be 16 weeks. Music for little people 2.30pm on a wednesday at goose green centre.. Agreed jump on one of the mum club threads and you will be able to tag along to meet some other mums x

Try the Early Days Course from the NCT. You'll meet a group of new mums with babies aged 0-8 months and have a chance to talk about life with your baby. Held at Christchurch Barry Road SE22 0JT, go to nct.org.uk for details.

All the best

Just wanted to say this course is excellent (NCT post natal Pippa Brook) and addresses lots of issues such as weaning, sleep, local activities, returning to work as well as meeting people. I think there is one coming up soon so book now. One of the best and most useful courses I ave been on.

There are some spaces on the next NCT Early Days Postnatal course which starts on 8th January 2013.

Contact [email protected] asap to get onto this course. The next one after that starts on 26th Feb.

PM me for more details

Hi Yellow Timer,

The Autumn babies club meets every Mom at the Bread of Life cafe at 11 if you fancy coming along. Most of our babies are 2-3 months (my little guy will be 3 months on Fri). We've started baby sensory as well which is good fun. Kate x
