Hi everyone!


So I've started reading the Gill Rapley baby led weaning book and I'm waiting till little P - my first baby - is 6 months till I start giving her some food to try (which is just a couple of weeks away)...


It would be great to hear from other baby led weaning mums and see if anyone would be interested in meeting up over a coffee to share their experiences, and offer support and encouragement for us new to it all?


If you're interested let me know and I'll arrange a time and date.


Thanks Pia

would barry rd christ church cafe be any good (i've never been there but it apparently has a child friendly cafe? any thoughts on it?) or duwlich park cafe?

My 8 a bit month old goes through stages of tucking in and then ignoring the food but have a friend with similar age baby who LOVES his food and tucks in 3 times a day with gusto, he seems to prefer the loaded spoon option. My boy prefers to get his hands in even with rice crispies...! Then another friends baby just puts his head near the plate and hoovers it up! We've started meeting once a week at 5pm for them to eat dinner together as although we try to eat with them, talk 'normally' and behave like it's a general dining experience it can get hard when it's just the 2 of you. More than happy to meet up but can only do Tuesday & Fridays (not am) as am back at work.

Just wanted to say thanks to those who came along yesterday - it was lovely to meet you and your sweet little ones. Great to see how well the babies can feed themselves too! Thanks for all the tips.


I'm feeling really excited about letting little P try lots of different things now....


Will set up another date in a few weeks time to see how everyone is getting on and hopefully meet a few more mums who couldn't make it yesterday.


Have fun!

      Decision 2 April - Proposed Development - The Sidings, Railway Rise, SE22

      "Dedicated to the purpose-built student accommodation sector. PBSA News is the leading source of news, insights and analysis for professionals, investors and stakeholders in the purpose-built student accommodation sector. With a mission to provide the latest information and foster collaboration within the rental community."   The PBSA take on the strength of the market seems much more upbeat than does the govt. research paper. Perhaps they are right or perhaps it is in their interests to talk up the market?

      I think a lot of people here are just speculating about empty student accommodation properties. Student accommodation developments are very popular because they provide really great rates of return for the owner. A large student accommodation owner, Unite Students, saw 97.5% occupancy across their assets in the 2024/2025 academic year. They have many properties in London; https://pbsanews.co.uk/2024/10/09/unite-students-reports-record-occupancy-rates-in-q3-2024-update/ Here's a bit from CBRE on PBSA properties in London from May 2024: https://www.cbre.co.uk/press-releases/london-plan-policy-fails-to-deliver-affordable-student-accommodation - "According to new research by CBRE and QX Global, the gap between demand for PBSA and available supply in London currently stands at 100,000 – 105,000 full-time students, underscoring how demand for student housing has outpaced supply." - The development pipeline in London isn't keeping up with the demand. Ultimately this development wouldn't be built if student accommodation wasn't in demand. It's proximity to the station means that a student could get to any number of universities easily in a short span of time. Is it ideal? No. Would more affordable housing be better? Yes. Is speculating about channel migrants occupying the space uninformed idiocy? Absolutely.

      it isn't said on any news source that I look at. Are you asking on social media whether what you read on other social media is true?
