Raynes Pk/ Wimbledon Mummies - Anyone up for a coffee meetup?

35 replies

swannny · 08/01/2011 19:41

I'm 28 from Raynes Pk and 18 weeks pregnant with my first baby.

A lot of my friends don't really understand the whole being pregnant thing and I'm starting to feel really lonely. :(

My Mum is in Cyprus and has been since the beginning of my pregnancy pretty much (except for about a month in Nov). Unfortunately she had to go back at the beginning of December as my Nan died and she's still there sorting stuff out.

My husband has been amazing, but there's only so much he can understand.

So anyway, it would be lovely to meet other pregnant ladies in the area.

Bumping for you, Swanny. There are tons of MNers in Merton. My dc are older, so I'm not really what you're after. If you go to Wimbledon library - or hopefully Raynes Park library - they have an activities folder which lists all the things for mums and kids in the area - there are tons. Keep posting on here if you don't find what you want, though!

Thanks Wombly :) xx

The toddler group at St Matthews church on a Monday morning need help as the people who have been helping are not going to be there soon as their little ones start school nursery.

Would be a great opportunity to meet local people pregnant and with babies already.

Starts at 10am . I don't go anymore as DD too old and I work now. Sorry but everyone is very very friendly and I could let some people know you were going?

mummy2oandh · 09/01/2011 20:30

help = making tea and coffee also setting out toys which takes 10mins

TheHouseofMirth · 09/01/2011 20:39

I'm not pg (have 5 yo and 22 mo DSs) but am in RP and would happily meet for coffee and baby talk if you don't get any better offers!

You'll make some friends through your NHS or NCT ante natal classes if you do them but I agree, it's at this stage of your pregnancy you could really do with friends who understand what you're going through.

If you are planning to breast feed then I'd really recommend going along to some La Leche League meetings. Apart from the fact they are fab preparation and supoort, they actively welcome pregnant mums to meetings so you may make some new friends there.

swannny · 10/01/2011 12:26

Sounds good TheHouseofMirth - Inbox me and let me know when you're free :)

mummy2oandh - Where's St Matthews Church?

Done (to email, not inbox). x

katykoos · 05/02/2011 11:12

Hi all, I'm in Raynes Park too. Have just moved to the area from Southampton and know literally no one :(. My son is 5 weeks old and would be great to meet anyone for coffee or someone to head to any baby classes with. It's all a bit daunting

NoHunIntended · 05/02/2011 13:43

Hi, Katy

Mine is now 17 weeks, am just starting to make an effort to go to some groups (haven't been yet!) - some near you in RP - PM me if you'd like to go together. x

Bicnod · 08/02/2011 13:00

Hi all - I'm in Raynes Park as well. I've got a 21 month old DS and am nearly 18 weeks pg with DC2. Always up for meeting more local mums so if you're having a meet up could I come along?!

Katy - I went to Uni in Southampton and was brought up in the New Forest :)

anne74 · 16/02/2011 12:47

Oooh. Can I come? My son is 8 weeks and I'd love to meet up with some local mums. My NCT group are all a bit far away at the mo. Can you let me know what you're up to?

Unrulysun · 22/02/2011 21:41

I'd be interested in a coffee meet. Dd is 9 months and I've just decided not to go back to work so would like to meet all the people I can.

Also are you aware of Naughty Mummy? They sometimes do coffee meet ups and I really enjoyed the one I went to.

Yvers · 01/03/2011 12:40

I'm 20 weeks pregnant and keen to meet up with Mums to be in Wimbledon/Raynes park area for coffee and natter.

LHDrive104 · 09/03/2011 17:25

Hi all,

Have just come across your messages & wondered if it was too late to join in? My daughter is 4 months old & we aimlessly loiter around the area so it would be great to head on out & meet up for coffee & cake with some real people.

If you guys feel that you have a nice established group just let me know & I'll put a fresh shout out.

Well I haven't heard anything about a meet up so maybe we could organise something? Don't want to put times and meet up places on the thread (stranger danger) so if anyone is interested in a meet up PM me with your email address and I'll coordinate.

NoHunIntended · 17/03/2011 22:43

I am liking your new hat, Bicnod. Suits you! Will PM you now! :)

Bicnod · 18/03/2011 08:30

Thanks NHI - it's slightly dusty as haven't worn it in a while

Thanks to everyone who has sent a PM - could you all PM your email addresses? I think a group email is probably the easiest way of working out days/times to suit everyone.

If anyone else fancies coming along I reckon we'll try and organise something in the next week or so.

Look forward to meeting some of you soon - I'll be the hairy handed trucker in the corner swigging from the hipflask
