Hi Kaybee. i'm not sure if any meet-ups have happened yet. I have a dd who has just turned 2 and would definitely be interested in meeting up

Hi totalmisfit
Where do you think we could meet up - maybe a playground or something? It's always difficult isn't it, trying to figure out a place where you can find each other without having to go up to every stranger!!

I'm also happy to meet up-have met loads of other mums on here.
I have 2 boys-eldest will be 3 in June and the yougest is nearly 1.
Kaybee-I've chatted to you before,via email.

Think I was 'chatting' to you from another site.

Any idea where we could try and meet? I am due in a couple of weeks, but as long as baby doesn't arrive early can hopefully make a get together. Otherwise, I might have to wait until I get organised enough to head out of the house with two under two!
Totalmifit are you still around???

yep - still around. wondering where would be the best place to suggest...? as you're about to have your next dc, probably best if you let us know where's best for you!

What about soft play, like Kids corner in epping or Tumble in the jungle ? Don't think mine would sit still enough for a cafe anymore which is a shame as it sounds much less exausting!

i know what you mean, dd doesn't sit still for a split second these days! agree soft play or something would be best - there's quite a good one in Leytonstone (Cathall Leisure Centre) if that's not too far afield? It doesn't get too busy during term time usually.

Sorry haven't checked mn local for a while, i expect you've given birth by now! Hope you and baby are doing well, let us know when you're feeling up to getting out and about again

Nope not yet, still waiting for the damn baby to make an appearance Currently 3 days overdue....

I know the soft play at Cathall, ds had swimming lessons there until a couple of weeks ago! Def be keen to meet up once I've had this baby.

Oh you poor thing - it's no fun when you're overdue, is it? DD was 6 days late and i was climbing the walls! we tried everything - going for a curry, having a really long walk in the park, i even ate a whole pineapple because the hv said it would help get things moving

KaybeeandZak · 21/04/2008 13:55

Haha ha we have two pineapples waiting in the kitchen..... tried it all last time with ds though and nothing worked. Have mw appt tomorrow for sweep i guess, and appt for acupunture on weds and am off to try find some chinese herbal remedies this afternoon in a shop a drove past in chigwell!! As you can see i am very desperate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

poor you!!! i don't know what to suggest... i know you've already had a membrane sweep - have they given you another date for trying induction?

(it's totalmisfit by the way, i've namechanged)

KaybeeandZak · 24/04/2008 14:14

Ahhh I was wondering who you were!

Induction booked for Sat at the mo.

Have some more acupuncture booked for this afternoon so I guess that's my last ditch effort..........

Hey chicks,

Another local girl here, not read through the whole chat but just realised a couple of you hanging out to give birth. Tried chinese accupuncture (practitioner in George Lane, South Woodford) or reflexology ? Know of someone who was a midwife and now just does reflexology and actually comes round to you. Hope to be of help, and perhaps meet up when the new arrivals finally make it !!
