Rebeccakelly88 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hello everybody. Am really keen to meet some other first time mums who are maybe as overwhelmed as I am. I have only just moved to the area as well and now maternity leave is here - well reality of what's around the corner is sinking in. Would be great to maybe organise a meet up that could perhaps turn into a first time mums group. :) Bex x Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/30840-first-time-mums-aprilmay-births/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
midivydale Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi Rebecca,You are in the right area and will make loads of new friends I am sure. Have you joined the spring babies group? Their thread is on this forum. Also try and go to some of the bumps and babies groups as you will meet loads of people that way. www.edtots.co.uk are great for info. I would def recommend the group at the Crooked Well for the early days when the baby is v young. It is a lovely group.

Syppox2000 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi Rebecca I'm also keen to meet new mums - I'm due on may 1st . It's all coming round really quickly and it would be lovely to meet some others in the same boat.

Kells Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Hi,At the risk of hijacking the spring babies thread ( I think their's is a regular meet though so hopefully not) do you fancy meeting up tomorrow (Friday 5th march) at about 1pm, maybe for tea and cake at one of the cares on lordship lane? I would have suggested a park, but its only April, maybe we should hide from the snow ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/30840-first-time-mums-aprilmay-births/#findComment-631891 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebeccakelly88 Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 I would have loved to do this, but am having about 5 different deliveries to the new house tomorrow and cant leave :( However would be lovely to do this on a weekday next week? Tuesday or Wednesday?ha you are right, i didn't want to over ride the spring babies thread but I noticed that not many were first timers so thought id try this way. At least we arent having to deal with late pregnancy in the heat - that can't be much fun!!! x Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/30840-first-time-mums-aprilmay-births/#findComment-631893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kells Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 I know that feeling too! I hope you don't mind, I've pm'ed you as well - I am due on Monday, so may or may not be able to make it. Would love to meet up though, so am sure we can sort something out. Overwhelmed doesn't come close and congratulations on the new house - there seems to be a lot around for mums here so I'm sure we'll enjoy it Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/30840-first-time-mums-aprilmay-births/#findComment-631905 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kate_t Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Hi,I am due in early May and would definitely be keen to meet up with other new Mums-to-be - it's all feeling very real now! I'm on maternity leave now also so any weekday get togethers would be great. Hope to see you soon.

dtoh Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Morning ladies, I'm a first time mum too and baby is due 5th May! all very exciting and apprehensive. I'm also new to the east dulwich forum for that matter. my midwife recommended I check the spring babies forum out now that I'm on maternity leave and just been reading through some of the postings, when I also came across this forum and thought i'd say hello as it may be a little more suited. It would be lovely to meet up with a few first timers and chat about first pregnancies and all things that is new with baby stuff! Quite overwhelming. It's a lovely new experience but it would be nice talking with others going through the same thing and also to get out and have a coffee, as my city work world has just ceased and it'd be nice to get involved in my E.Dulwich home world! I'm also free next week for a coffee - Monday, Tuesday morning or Thursday if that suits anyone? Kells, all the best for Monday! Thoughts are with you.

Kells Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 HiShall we say Tuesday at 11 at Peckham Rye cafe then? If I can't make it I'm sure I can catch up with you all another time! I might have a one day old by then, but he doesn't seem in any particular hurry!

Bexy Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Hi ladies, Firstly congratulations to you all on becoming mums for the first time. I'm another first timer keen to meet other new mums as I'm the first of my locally based friends to have a baby. I'm due 26th April and have just started my maternity leave today - such a relief! Unfortunately, I can't meet tomorrow as I have an antenatal class but I would love to meet up with you if you're planning to meet again at some point soon. If so, please let me know. Enjoy your meeting tomorrow, Another Bex!
