(Very) newly pregnant ED girl looking for pregnant buddies...

Hey East Dulwich


My boyfriend and I just found out that we're expecting a baby. :) This is not a planned pregnancy so we're a little shell-shocked, but obviously very excited.


I haven't even had a proper doctor's appointment yet as had to jet off for a business trip the same morning(!), but must be 2-4 weeks pregnant from the dates.


Obviously this is super early and all sorts of things can happen, but fingers crossed everything goes to plan and I would really like to start making friends in the area as this is completely new to both of us.


I'm sure this will come naturally through ante natal classes in any case, but if anyone else is in a similar position and would like a buddy to share the pregnancy experience with, or already has a baby and would like to extend their friendship group, please feel free to drop me a message.


Wishing everyone an amazing weekend!

Franki (& Tom)

Congratulations! Def join the autumn babies club when it comes up. I am part of spring babies 2012 and these ladies - and babies:) mean the world to me. Have met friends for life and you will too.

Try to get the thread active as early as possible ie arrange meet ups etc so that you get to know people in your pregnancy. Once you have established a few friendships before the little one arrives makes it sooo much easier to get out and about in the early hormonal, sleepdeprived stages.

    • I can't really comment on the general West/East/Village discussion.  It's all out of my price range, and like others I expect, we moved here when the area was much more affordable and dare I say much of it 'ordinary'.  But was thinking exactly the same as New Wave regards to SE23 as a place to live, and convenient for SE22 etc for visiting including buses and an easy cycle.  You have hills of course in Forest Hill but this adds to the charm (and from a lot of places the views). At the edge of Forest Hill you have the best pub in the country, the Blythe Hill Tavern.  Pubs can get better, and can get worse, as they do everywhere, including Forest Hill, but the Blythe is consistently great for the craic and the beer (no restaurant but the pizza van comes at weekends).
    • Forest Hill area around Manor Mount/Horniman gardens...Or Off of Honor Oak Rd good transport Links (Overground and Southern to London Bridge)  decent Bus Routes (P4 goes past Dulwich College and into the Village). Very easy to get to Crystal Palace park Horniman Gardens and museum on the doorstep Horniman Triangle kids playground Dulwich Woods and Dulwich Park and riding school in walking distance. A few decent pubs and again easy to go to Peckham, and ED for good resturants. A few excellent coffee shops where you can get lunch. Theres a brilliant Thai resturant (Matoom) and a very good Japanesese (Sushi Garden) and 2 family friendly pubs/bars that serve good food (The Signal and Sylvan Post). a fantastic butcher, a couple of Deli's and a Sainsbury for all the other 'stuff' There is also a local pool and small gym We've lived in this area (Near Horniman border of Lewisham and Southwark) for 13 years having moved from Notting Hill. It feels very safe and is family friendly..We were originally looking to buy in Dulwich but did'nt want a small victorian terrace we got more for our money here and have been very happy.
    • Indeed Alice, but the traffic illustrated and those affected by it really don't count; they are examples of necessary collateral damage in the council's fight for the 'greater good'. 
    • One of the many, many beaches around the world you have flown to?
