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.

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.

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!

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.

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!!

      Mobile Mechanic (car)

      By hazelnunhead · Posted

      I am looking for a mobile mechanic to help me either take out my car battery or connect a trickle charger.  Does anyone have any contacts for this.   Thanks

      Oh Rachel....

      By Earl Aelfheah · Posted

      We need to build houses for social rent. Not 'affordable housing' (which is a euphemism for housing that is completely unaffordable to most) - actual council housing.  Taxes do need to go up. We have to stabilise public services and start paying down our national debt to break free of the sway bond markets have over UK governments freedom to act. We are probably all going to have to work longer too. The original UK state pension was there to help those who often had been in physically demanding manual or labouring jobs. The retirement age was set above average life expectancy at the time; It was not designed for a population of mainly white collar workers people to spend one-quarter, to one-third of their adult life in retirement. I know that may sound harsh, and I certainly don't want to work forever, but the fact is that we have an aging population and a diminishing tax base, and no politician who is willing to make fundamental reforms. Mostly we need to grow, and that means at some point, addressing our relationship with the world's largest trading block right on our doorstep. The damage done by Brexit has been crazy. The fact that it's chief architect has managed to come up smelling of roses and may potentially be our next PM is just mind blowing to me.

      Cheese shops

      Mice will eat *anything*! That shop had a couple of very low food hygiene ratings over the years (and it was closed for "refurbishment" for a while which was obviously the first attempt to deal with the pest problem) so I'm not surprised by that article. You'd hope that pest control would have dealt with the majority of them...

      Makes me wonder where the mice will have gone since it closed down.
