Heat is a nightmare isn't it?! We don't get out much either as too hot in buggy. Found that cafe in Dulwich park has nice thru breeze and open fairly early. Also went to Co-op today, really cool inside, so much so that babies woke up protesting!!

Hello everyone,


Congratulations to all the new 'mums' who've had their summer babies - hope motherhood is treating you all well.


My husband and I just moved to the area 3 weeks ago and i've only just discovered the forum! I am due today and it's my first baby so feeling very excited, although there doesn't seem to be any baby arrival signs yet! I'd love to meet some other new mums and share stories and questions - look forward to hearing about any meet ups planned.


Best wishes,

Piumi x

Welcome Piumi!

Congrats on the twins BBear!!


Our daughter Amber is finally here! 8lbs3oz. 12 days late, started Mon night, after many different turns ended up with a c-section Weds morning so couldn't fully utilise the hypnobirthing unforch and couldn't try water birth as being monitored due to high BP! As they say, birth plans are just a piece of paper sometimes!! At least the end reward is worth it!!


We'll be in Kings a while as Amber is on anti-biotics as poss swallowed stuff on exit. Shout if anyone else in here so I can say hi/come visit!! Then looking fwd to when I can make the next meet up.


Ginny

Congratulations Ginny! I dont think i have met anyone whose delivery was anything like their birth plan yet! Sorry to hear you will be stuck there for a bit. Hopefully it won't be too long and you'll be home with Amber v soon. Looking forward to meeting her at a catch up soon.

Congratulations Ginny. Our little girl, Juliet, arrived 2 days early on Monday and after three days on antibiotics for the same reason, we got home last night. Once we are all settled I would be really keen to meet up with everyone again as its been ages and I am looking forward to meeting all the new arrivals.


Philippa

Ah wonderful! Congrats Philippa!! Lovely name and competition for Amber in snaring Prince George in 20 years ;))

And a Royal Coin for you too!!

Def up for meeting and as we're walking distance could go as soon as we're up to it!


We ~may~ get out today, fingers crossed for speedy and clear cultures!!!


Ginny

Huge congratulations Ginny and Philippa!

Birth plans hey, mine did not go according to plan either...Oscar had pooed in the water so had to be induced and he was delivered 24 hours later with forceps, after a failed ventouse attempt.


Hope you get to go home today Ginny, I could not wait to get out of the post natal ward!


Looking forward to meet the new arrivals when you are ready!

Congratulations! Very pleased for everyone and am looking forward to catching up as well. Perhaps the week after next so the new mums can get settled in and then we can all meet the new additions. Not sure what everyone's plans are but how about Monday 5th or Friday 9th in the afternoon?

Awe, super news Ginny and Philippa! Definitely worth the wait Ginny : )) The lack of sleep is proving difficult for me at the minute but hopefully he'll start sleeping longer at night soon.


Great idea Sally, Monday or Friday would be good for us!


Claire X

Congrats on all the new arrivals and hope everyone is coping with the sudden sleep deprivation (have to say the heatwave hasn't really been helping sleep-wise!). Our little boy Toby arrived 3 weeks ago today but can't believe how quickly the time has flown by already!

Would love to catch up with everyone next week - Monday better for me but could possibly still do Friday...

Then let's do Monday 5th August - shall we say 11.30am? Welcome suggestions of where to meet although if there are a few of us, outdoors is probably best with all the buggies. Shall we say Peckham Rye cafe in the park and if it rains The Clockhouse? Does that work for everyone? Sally x

oooooh congrats on all the new babies, well done Claire, Philippa, Ginny and BBear - and anyone else I've missed!!


Our little girl, Araceli, was born 12 July. I can't believe how fast time has gone since she arrived.


Thinking of all the Aug crew awaiting their new arrivals - hope you're doing well!


I can make Monday too but will be a bit late. Looking fwd to catching up and meeting the new arrivals.


Jen xx

Congrats Jen, was wondering when we'd hear your news!


Annoyingly I'm about to be re admitted to Kings for IV antibiotics ;((

Just when we were settling at home. Amber has to be in too as I'm breastfeeding. Still at least lucky hubby gets some sleep!!


So am most unlikely to make Mon now as wont be out til Mon at earliest.


See you at the next one!!

    • Hallo As far as I know  info you have quoted is wrong.  You can phone for an appointment although I have always found it easier to do online. Go to their website for info on how to book appointments Any requests I have made have been reviewed and answered by a GP within 4 hours
    • Nadia did a great job tidying up my very very overgrown yard. (See the before and after photos). I live in New Zealand and my tenants said a neighbour has been complaining about the out of control ivy. Nadia was easy to contact so over WhatsApp, managed to liaise between me and my tenants. Her quote was reasonable for the amount of work that needed doing, and the end result is great! She sent photos throughout so I could track progress. Would highly recommend her to others. 
    • My car was stolen a few months back from my driveway but I had a tracker and found it in a private car park in Lavender Hill close to the police station. I was lucky. The thieves hide it up against that eventuality. High spec cars are targeted I'm afraid. The way it was stolen required the thieves to wire in their own computer accessing a front light (which had had a metal sheet welded across which they prised off). They had searched for a tracker but not found it. They also had to cut away a steering wheel lock. They had to come well tooled up and briefed to do what they did. Beating them off is non trivial. As I said, them not finding my tracker was just lucky. 
    • Been with The Gardens now for around 30 years and very rarely do I have a problem. I went in to collect a form and mentioned that my leg was hurting and hot- was seen immediately by the Practice nurse who then arranged an appointment on the Saturday with the Extra care service at TJ Centre where I saw a doctor, who then sent me off to Kings for further tests.. I recently booked a flu jab but appointment is in 2 weeks.
