hello everyone!


latecomer here -- but hello! I'm Emma, recently moved to nunhead from Copenhagen (where our first son, now two and a half, was born). We welcomed our second son, Noam, two weeks ago today - he was born at home, very cool experience. if there's any space at the table still, I'd be delighted to come along to a meetup or two! I'm free the 20th of May for sure, and would also be happy to take private messages and arrange other meetings with folks recently returned to newborn-care-land. I'll be working some from September but have a pretty relaxed summer to look forward to.


cheers! - Emma 07581145083

Hi all


just came across this thread faffing around on the forum... We moved to nunhead three weeks ago and I'd love to meet some local mums. I have a boy who is almost 2 and my 2nd baby is due 1st August. would it be ok for me to join you guys on 20th May?


Best, Rosalie

  • 2 weeks later...

Lovely meeting all of you yesterday. I wanted to pick your brains on the double buggy question. I guess the options are:

- baby in pram and buggy board for toddler

- toddler in buggy and baby in sling

- fork out ?600+ on a double buggy (and if so which one???)


Would be great to hear what yu are planning to do...


Hopefully see you all soon,

Rosalie

I will do a combination of toddler in the buggy and baby in a sling plus a double buggy. The sling will be a godsend but there will be times when I want to leave the baby asleep in the pram so I don't think the sling is practical all the time. I have heard mixed things about buggy boards. i.e some toddlers don't get on with them and they make the buggy really heavy to push

I have brought a second hand mountain buggy duet. I really wanted a side by side one and this is the narrowest one of the market. If Flo was gonna be older maybe I could get any without a double.

I'm hoping to do some slinging of baby and maclaren for toddler but given poss CS and nappage have also got a second hand P&T from the forum. (Stephanie's too young for a buggy board though) Also still have our M&P urbo pram so may use that & reins for Stephanie if she's walking more for V local trips!

    • If you want a small prickly evergreen for shade I would recommend Ruscus aculeatus. Unlike Pyracantha, which grows big and is unpleasant to prune, Ruscus only grows to a metre and it will grow in very dark dry shade where almost nothing else does. It is viciously spiny and has very good  red berries in winter.  Berberis darwinii and Berberis julianae are two good evergreen Berberis that will grow in partial shade. I usually order from Burncoose but I have always had a good service from Crocus.

    • Have you found your cat. The new cat in our garden looks very much like yours.  
    • I first subscribed to Tortoise two or three years ago, and also subscribe to the Guardian, and eg Byline and various others - I do feel it is important to support good media if you can. Tortoise have done some interesting stuff, tried to really reach out to readership and have been quite trailblazing on topical podcasts too. Having said that, I still can't quite see how it all fits with the Observer and I worry it will make both worse as they have different bases and dynamics in my view.
