Aww thanks! She is perfect this morning as she went to sleep at 11 and then didn't wake until 4.40 and then slept again till 8.30 at which point she gave me massive smiles! Happy mummy!

Friday coffee works for me

 

[mungaroo26]

Friday it is then!

I'm feeling ready for baby to arrive now - I've enjoyed a few weeks off work now so I've had my me time! Got a feeling I'll be kept waiting for a while yet even though hubby is convinced that today is the day!

Getting really tired as I'm struggling to sleep. Sounds like Folly is getting far more sleep than I am - that's for sure!

Hopefully I'll be ok for Friday aqua and if anything changes I'll let you know

Hiya all,

I live just outside Sheffield in Dinnington....Do you guys ever meet up outside town??

I am 33 weeks and 3 days pregnant and would really LOVE to make some new friends

Hello

We have started meeting on Friday afternoon because a couple of us have been goingto aquanatal at king edwards school pool. After that we've been heading for coffee on ecce road cos it's handy for there and has parking for those coming with babies!
You would be very welcome to join us?

If that's no good or if you're still working then feel free to suggest somewhere that would suit you and we can meet up there instead! It's been really nice meeting up with other bumps and babies!

Hello danibou & overandout!

Urgh is the thought of the week! - Folly I think your getting more sleep than me also! I have been really uncomfy in the rib region all week, ended up having the day off on Wed as I was just sooooo tired!

I can't wait till LO is here, still seems far too long. One of the ladies at work daughters was due on the 8th Dec and they have had a little girl 9 weeks early. She is doing ok though, but the pics have made everything seem a lot more real and imminent *gulp*

Thank you for the welcome ill have a think on other place, as eccy road is quite far from where i live. I finish work in 2 weeks now so hopefully will have more time. Really want to meet some new people as I am originally from guernsey and don't really know that many people xx

Is some-where like Meadowhall or Crystal Peaks in the right direction?

 

[ArcaneSpark]

Kathryn - Hope you get on-line soon as I don't wanna steal your thunder but am bursting for the others to know yours news!!!! :-D

 

[dannibou]

yeah!! both meadowhall and crystal peaks are much closer!! Think Crystal Peaks is probs clostest and safest with my driving!! haha!

Kathryn - Hope you get on-line soon as I don't wanna steal your thunder but am bursting for the others to know yours news!!!! :-D

Hello

Just to let u all know that I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy on 7th October at 6.48am. I've called him Archie Thomas. Hopefully I'll be able to come and meet you all for coffee before long. Crystal peaks is easy enough for me to get to.
Still can't believe I'm a mummy! Nice that he chose to arrive 6 days early!

Hope everyone else ok?
Xx

 

[dannibou]

Congratulations!!!! I cant wait for my turn now xx

 

[Folly]

Pretty disappointed you didn't make it for coffee on Friday Kathryn, you had a whole 7 hours to get yourself discharged and up eccy road can't wait to meet him, bet he looks tiny next to my chubby cheeked lady!

Crystal peaks is only 5 mins from me

Left Issy with daddy today while I went to the dentist - felt like I was missing a limb! I was secretly hoping I would return to find him in chaos but they coped fine!

 

[dannibou]

Cool, do you think we could arrange a meet up in Crystal Peaks then?

what age range is everyone at these meet ups? How rude of me to ask I know...... sorry....just trying to get an idea. I am 25 soon to be 26 just after christmas.

Hey... I know I'm superwoman and all that but even that would have been pushing it for me!

Crystal peaks is ok for me too tho it depends on the timing!

Awwww congratulations!!!

Hi , yeah a Crystal Peaks will be ok for me if I get a post code for TomTom of a lift with Kathryn. One of my friends lives out that way so know vaguely where I'm heading!

Are you on maternity leave yet Dannibou?

I'm 29 at the moment, you wouldn't be the youngest, Emily who joined us on the first meet-up was a few years younger than you.

When is good for every-one else?

x

 

[dannibou]

I have one more week left of work so if everyone else is on maternity already then if we could meet in a weeks time that would be perfect for me roll on Monday the 24 th haha

Where in crystal peaks would we go? Not sure what's in there as it's been a while.... I am excited

 

[Folly]

I'm 31 but I don't like to think about it!

There isn't a brilliant choice at peaks, there is Time (was o'briens) but the two times I have been the food hasn't been great, there is a love coffee shop upstairs which is a chain one or sainsburys cafe. Time is prob better ambience wise, not sure how big the one upstairs is, will look if I go there this week!

I am easy on days really, can't do the 24th as have my 6 week check!

How long does your hubby have off Kathryn? How did the first outing go? X

 

[mungaroo26]

Ok so now I feel like an old fart... It's my birthday on 26th and I will be 34! Eeeek. I like to think I don't look it though, or at least i didnt before my little man arrived!

My hubby goes back to work on 24th but has booked the day off on 26th so at least my first week without him at home will be broken up a bit!

First outing went surprisingly well-we've been having an outing everyday since day 4 just to get us used to being out and about! Not mastered the art of feeding in public yet though-have ended up back in the car each time he's needed feeding instead!

Let me know when you've chosen a day for meeting up and I'll hopefully be there! Will just have to start getting us ready about 3 hours before we are meeting and then I should be fine!!! Fiona will understand what I mean by this!!
