Second time mums - Summer Babies FH or ED

[ncg]

Hello,

I will be having my second baby in July. My little girl will be just over two and I would love to meet some second time mummies in the same boat. Some summer mat leave friends would be great. I will be working part time which makes it tricky to stay in the loop of mummy life so thought I'd post this to see if anyone was keen to hook up/start a group x

Hi

I will have my second baby in the beginning of June. My daughter will be just over 2 when the baby will arrive so I they are similar age :)

[Al&Em]

Me too. My second baby is due in July and my little boy will be 2 and 3 months. Would be keen to meet up too.

Hey, my babies (twins) are due in June. And my son is almost 3. Would love to meet some second time mums x

[BellendenBear]

Hi ncg, I sent you a PM a couple of days ago. I am also having twins due in July. I will also have a 4 year old and 2 and a bot year old (Hi Al&Em, I remember you from Spring Babies 2011!). I am keen to meet some other 2nd / 3rd timers.

Hi Ladies

I'm expecting my second in mid june when my son will be nearly 3. Would love to meet some more second timers too.

Potty training, when to move to a big bed, do I need a double buggy, how do I manage with a toddler and a new baby, when will I sleep, how do I avoid/manage sibling rivalry? What have I forgotten to get or prepare for this 2nd baby? We cover all this and more in our Welcoming Baby Number 2 course, just for parents expecting their 2nd baby.

Next course running in Crystal Palace (on the Triangle) over 3 evenings (2 hours each) in April (15th, 17th and 22nd April). Just a couple of places now left. East Dulwich Forum mums price of ?144 per couple or individual (normally ?180). Please contact me if you'd like to know more or book your place. Come and meet some other lovely local mums who are also pregnant with their 2nd babies. suze@theneopractice.com

Hello All,

I actually posted the very first message on this thread over a month ago and then as you may have gathered completely dissapeared. I had some really unexpected problems with my preganancy and was under super strict instructions to bed rest - permanently! Agh. So apologies for the silence. Anyway I'm back on form now and getting very excited and busy preparing for baby 2.

Great to see so many people are in the same boat and keen to meeet up. Is anyone up for a park met up? the morning of Friday 3rd or 10th May is good for me x

[lstickler]

Glad to hear you are feeling better. I work full time but I've got Fri 10th off as I've got some friends coming to stay in the afternoon. So could potentially do then (but not til about 11am). But don't arrange around me as my availability is a bit awkward until I start maternity leave x

[LauraHW]

I'll have finished work by then (giving myself a long break!) so would love to meet up on either of those dates!

[ncg]

Oh great glad there's some takers. Unfortuntalely I now have to work some further Fridays, I am sorry to be a pain. My next free on is 31 May, is that still ok? x

[lstickler]

I can do 31st x

[ncg]

fantastic, it's in the diary x

[LauraHW]

I can do that day (assuming nothing spectacular has happened by then....)

[ncg]

Great x

[Al&Em]

We should be able to do that day too - just hoping that the weather will be good! Will add to our diary.

PS. BellendenBear - have been meaning to say congratulations on your twin news! That is amazing! Will be lovely to catch up again with your brood!

[LauraHW]

Hi ladies

Hope you're all well. Just wondered if you're still interested in meeting up?

[lstickler]

Hiya, my son has chicken pox so I can't make it which is a shame. Have fun and hopefully I'll meet you another time x

[Al&Em]

We can still make it, if anyone else still fancies meeting up. Park somewhere would be good as it's a nice and sunny afternoon. Anytime from about 3pm ish for us.

Hello, I have a two year old boy and am due 19/06. I've just finished work, so would love to meet up with some second time mums in the next couple of weeks. We could try a playgroup like Cheeky Cs or the park next week? I'm having Monday and Tuesday to myself while my son is at his chilminder's, so coffee would work on those (or other) dys, too.

Hi Kate

I've still got 3 more weeks at work to go but only work part time so have Thursdays and Fridays off at the mo anyway (but obviously with toddler in tow). We might be busy next week though (definitely Thurs possibly Friday), but otherwise would definitely be up for a park or playgroup meet up.

Em

[LauraHW]

I'm keen to meet and pretty flexible next week, with or without toddler in tow! He's at nursery Wednesday to Friday.

[lstickler]

Next week is my last week at work - hurrah! And have 2 weeks off before my c-section date. So I can't meet up next week but will be available after that if anyone fancies meeting later on aswell.

[ncg]

There's a second time mum meet up tomorrow if any if you guys are up for it. 7pm onwards at the Clockhouse x
