Hello there

This is my first posting on EDF. Excitingly, I'm due middle of August with my first, and would love to meet for a (decaf) coffee on Sunday/ Monday at 10am with you all. Which day are we opting for?

Welcome Kelli :) Great to have some more August babies on board - felt like I was the only one for a while! Should we go for Monday at 10am? The Gardens looks great.

Hey, 21st at Clockhouse sounds perfect! Thanks for booking Philippa! I think the events manager of the clockhouse posted on here a few weeks ago - she may be able to recommend a good area inside.

Looking fwd to it!!

[Al&Em]

Same here - looking forward to seeing everyone again on 21st. Clockhouse sounds great.

In the meantime will try and make it to the Gardens on Monday. See you then...

After a fantastic debut term Daisy Birtihing classes return on the 13th May , with all mummies to be renewing for a second term to really ensure we continue to work on the inner birthing muscles.

Want to know more ............

Daisy Birthing has a unique take on birth preparation and is so much more that a breathe stretch and relax class.

Classes include a range of more conventional techniques combined into a 1hr 15 min class which allows mums to learn as they move.

Daisy birthing has combined :

* Yoga inspired movements

* Traditional Active Birthing

* Birth Breathing Education

* Key Birthing Education

Classes will build muscle memory and help you find intuitive techniques to help you enjoy a more comfortable birth experience.

Classes cost only ?55 for a six week term and missed classes CAN be carried over.

Spaces are limited, please contact Nadine for further info.

Hey Philippa, I've just booked the usual spot in the EDT from 7pm on 21st. Can always cancel if ppl would rather try somewhere else... I gave them your name as won't be there until after 8:30 - starting NHS antenatal classes at Dulwich hospital that evening. Anyone else on the same course? (Feels like a bit of an overdose with NCT as well!)

[tortor]

Thanks so much for booking... I will be there. Have only been to 1 so far (am due in early July) but would love to catch up with people again. Look forward to seeing some of you there.

[MarleneG5S]

Hi Eimear

I will be on the same NHS course as you, starting 21st. We are also booked in for http://www.ariadnasole.com/ starting on 23rd, have the same feeling as you regarding information overkill!

Marlene x

[Ginster]

Thanks Eimear - plus see you at NCT tomorrow.

I have only just been finding out about the NHS classes - so might see what you think before going for those as may well be some repeat of NCT?

Tortor - I think you're due 2 days before me (I'm 12th July) so would be good to catch up at the next drinks and compare notes!

[mikimoo]

Yes see you tomorrow Ginny and see you on 21st then Marlene! I know what you mean about overkill - I've just signed up for a hypnobirthing course as well - talk about a glutton for punishment! (Between the courses/midwife appts etc. being pregnant's beginning to feel like a full time job!! Lol!)

[mee mee]

Hi all

I am having my baby in the middle of July and having some pelvic pains.

I have been recommended to do a antenatal yoga or pilates classes.

Does anyone know any in the area? has to be after 5 or weekends as i am still working.

Thanks in advance

[Sals12]

There is a great pregnancy yoga on a Saturday morning just off Bellenden Road, called Gaia studios and run by Barbara. 9.30am until 10.45am - small class of about 6 or 7 and she is great, pushes you so you feel like you have had a workout but also very conscious of everyone's stages and aches and pains! You can just rock up or book in via email barbaramella@hotmail.com

Hope this helps and maybe see you there! xx

[mee mee]

Thank you, I might try that one..
