I asked the same question for my daughter who refused to take a bottle. I got loads of great tips and tried them all. I think I spent over ?100 on bottles, teats and different formula. I even hired a trouble shooting nanny from a nanny agency who assured me could solve the issue. Unfortunately, nothing worked. I tried her on a bottle every day from 14 weeks and she eventually took one at around 8 months! It is of course worth trying everything but my experience was that she only moved to a bottle when she really got into food and was more interested in taking a spoon and having different textures in her mouth. I wish you lots of luck and pm me if you have any questions. Jessica

Hi everyone I was thinking that it would be nice to arrange our first get together. I think most of us will now be 12 weeks +. What do people think? A week day evening would be best for me. Thoughts? Jessica xx

Hi I joined the previous Autumn babies thread but think that has now disappeared. I'm due with my third (help!) on October 8th. Looking forward to meeting you all. I loved these groups with my other two. Jessica

Hi We can meet this Friday as well. Will be there at 3.30ish. Look forward to catching up Jess x

Great to see that more summer mums have joined the group. Unfortunately, I can't make this Sunday but I look forward to the next meet up. Jess x

Looks like 11 is the preferred time so see you there. Thx for booking a table

Sounds good. Although could we meet slightly earlier, say 10.30? J

Love how the group has grown so quickly. I can do this weekend or most nights next week. Jess x

Hello, I'm also expecting my second in July, had my 12 week scan today. Would love to meet up when more join the group Jess x

Hi I have a 15 month old and woukd love to join you guys but I'm way on Tuesday. Please keep me in the loop if another meet up us arranged. Thx Jess

We have travelled today to Excel with a baby and had a great journey. We Got the London overground from forest hill. We changed at Shadwell for DLR to custom house. It was quick and not busy. You can get bus to forest hill from ED but we actually drove and parked on wood vale and walked from there.

Great idea. 11th works for me. Enjoy the rest of the weekend Xxxx

Hi anya I am also I Interested. I had a csection three weeks ago and am keen/desperate to get back in shape safely. Thx Jessica

Hi all Don't think I will be able to make it over to hern hill tomorrow but will definitely make the Gardens meet up. Looking forward to catching up with everyone. Good luck to those that are due this week. Jess xx

Hi all After the most stressful 2 weeks of my life after being told in a late scan that there were abnormalities, our little one was born a week early via a planned csection (as he was breeched). He is HEALTHY and adorable, we are over the moon. Another boy! He name is Arlo James. I am am still in hospital recovering but am hoping to be let out this evening. Love to all Xxx

Hi all Really looking forward to seeing you all tonight. Jo - please can you put me down for breakie on Saturday. See you shortly Jess x

Hi all I hoope you are well. Really looking forward to catching up on the 18th. Rhian - hubby and i are defintiely up for the 29th. It's in the diary :-) Jess xx

Hi all I have also just had my 32week scan and been told that my baby is breeched! Can't believe it, my midwife told me just days ago that it was head down and I haven't felt anything move. Fingers crossed it turns. Sophie, I would love to join the meet up on the 18th. Franklins was great last time, they really looked after us. Nikki, Tuesday meet ups sound great. I can't wait to finish work-6 weeks and counting See you all soon. Look after yourselves Jessica x

Alex and Aysh: glad that you can make it tomorrow night, I have added you to the list. On a separate note, I was thinking that maybe we could invite husbands/partners to one of our next meet-ups? We could get a private area in one of the pubs and do some drinks and nibbles. You might think it?s a terrible idea but thought i would throw it out there for discussion!!

Hi all So I think we should just stick to The Actress, despite not being able to book. I really can't imagine it will be that busy on a Wednesday night and it's a good venue for quick food. I will also try to get there as early as possible to reserve seating for 20 - no one is going to mess with me! If you need to reach me my mobile it's 07974 161217. See you on the 1st at 7.30pm at The Acress, Crystal Palace Road. Jess xx Jo - jj55 Emma - jimnem Jenny - jennifer Jenny - countjc (if no parents evening!)

Hi Kristin Many thanks for getting in touch and for sharing your details, I am sure this will be of interest to a number of us. I don?t think it would be appropriate to come along on Wednesday as we like to keep the meet-ups as social as possible ? it?s all about getting to know each other. However, if anyone is interested in exploring Hypo birthing, I am sure they will be in touch. Thanks again Jessica

Hi all I hope you all had lovely weekends. Great that so many people are up for the 1st Feb, I have counted 20 so far!! Please let me know if I have forgotten anyone or if you would like to join us on the 1st. I was thinking of the Actress on Crystal Palace Road, however, they don?t take bookings so i am looking for another venue! I am going to make some calls later tonight and tomorrow so will update you all on the venue as soon as i can. Really looking forward to it Jessica xx Jo - jj55 Emma - jimnem Jenny - jennifer Jenny - countjc (if no parents evening!)

Hi all I would be very happy to arrange the next meet up for us all on the 1st Feb. Please let me know if you can make it. I suggest we aim to meet up at 7.30pm. The Actress pub on crystal palace road could be a good option. Or a curry? What do people prefer? Looking forward to seeing you all. Laura: we met yesterday at yoga. Welcome to the group, I'm glad you found us. Hope to see you on the 1st! Have good weeks. Jess x
