Any mums-to-be in Plymouth area?

[Kerri28]

hello, i'm first timer and 19 weeks pregnant, just getting over the worst of pregnancy symptoms, is there anyone else who lives in the Plymouth area? i live in Tavistock where, for once, the sun is shining!

hi Loopymumsy, I moved to Plymouth a month ago. I have dd1 2.10 and dd2 16months. I haven't met any other mums yet here, but my sister has dd1 12 months. Let me know how you are getting on. Moving is hard work isn't it ! ?

hey everyone im 20 years old live in plymouth and expecting my first baby v scary stuff nice to find other mummys on here from plymouth or living in plymouth as can b v lonely being pregnant! well thats how im finding it! eeek!

hello again, hello looby when are you due? i don't actually live in plymouth, i live in tavistock, but i work in plymouth so if you (or any other mums-to-be) would like to meet up for a drink one lunchtime or after work i'm mroe than happy to. sorry to hear you're lonely, i know what you mean, even though i'm the old old age of 28 not many of my friends are pregnant or have kids either so when i talk about pregnancy they all seem to switch off!!

have been ill too since minute i got pregnant so social life gone down the pan!

Hi kerri,

yeah def have to do something im due 11sept i have friends who are pregnant well one lol but her life is so busy well most of ours is but its nice to have a cirlcle of people. when are you due? everyone switches off when i go on about pregnancy think its cos i go on and on and on. lol You having it @ derriford Hos?

O due 11 september! 16 weeks to go :-) yay

hi looby, sorry about long delay - kept meaning to check if you'd responded then forgot!! blame the pregnancy brain

I was originally due 20th august, but cos of size of baby at scan dates changed to 3rd september (gutted cos meant more time at work!) but i think i'm going to pop early cos am massively huge - look like swallowed a baloon.

yeah am having baby at derriford, heard good things about it so fingers crossed - are you? midwife keeps tellin me to have homebirth - as if?! i want drugs!!!

work at top end of plymouth (the end near debenhams) where do you work? do you fancy meetin for a spot of lunch or (sadly non alcoholic) drink after work one day?

aw hun well mine was originally the 1st septemper but the scan made mine to small so they put me to the 11th! i couldn't have a home birth for my first i want the drugs too!!! :-)
Well im working on mutley would love to meet for lunch or do something some time. when are you starting your maternity? iv booked mine for 11th August hope its not to early! Although i do have a feeling i may not go to the end as im pretty big and everyone keeps saying O your very big for your dates Blah Blah Blah all the experts well all the people that have had millions of kids seem to know but then again they even tell me what im having by my bump so who knows! LOL- and their all different!

i am starting maternity the same time!!! really really can't wait. gonna save all my baby clothes shopping until then to give me something to look forward to! i too am huge and will never ever get back into my nice (small) clothes again! have put on about one and a half stone. gutted!!! but i love people trying to guess what i'm having - i havent found out, like the idea of a surprise! (although i think i'm having a boy)

i finish work at 5 ish and can meet you after work in a pub on mutley plain for an hour or so for a diet, caffeine free, coke if you like?! just tell me when and where, can't do tuesday or friday nights but any other time good with me.

Hi all you Plymouth mums to be, I too live and work in Plymouth and am expecting 1st baby on 18th September, very excited! Will be good to share with some local mums! ;-)

hi poolers, as you can see me and loobybump are hoping to meet up at some point - would you like to join us? where do you work? fancy meeting up for a drink one night after work with us?

Hi kerri

well when we start our maternity we can shop together as i haven't got much yet still need to buy cot waiting on partner to finish decorating the house which is a big joke.! well i am free most nights i'v taken a couple days of work so off work till next tuesday after today so wont have much luck getting to a computer . i'll have to give you my number and we can all sort somehting out.. haven't worked out how to send any messages private i could give you my number then.

yeah i dont bother with computer at home either, work ones are much faster and more convenient. if you (or anyone else) wants to e-mail me privately its kerri petch at hot mail dot co dot uk but all joined up if you get what i mean! would be great to meet up with any local mums to be!

xxx

mine is [email protected] No Laughing its an older address!!!!!

hi, sorry not replied for a while, have you guys managed to meet up yet?

Loopumumsy - oh no i wasn't watching. I haven't been on mn for a while. Anyway, hope you have recovered from you move. I shall make sure I check here as would be nice to catch up. All the best x

Only just found this thread, so thought i'd pop in to say hello

Moved to plymouth about three months ago and am pregnant with no 3 due 1st oct, ds 3.9, dd 2.5.

You are all welcome to come for coffee!

hello tiny tot

Well were all planning to do coffee soon so you are welcome to pop along with us :-)

I feel the need for afternoon kips

Not likely to get any though! How are you settling in after your move? We are three months in and now feel the need for reorganisation. I never get it right first time round!

Your two are younger than mine though aren't they loopy? I'm starting to wonder how I'm going to cope with three under school age, but at least I'll be able to palm the older two off to preschool come January when DD turns three.

We are very near central park so you are more than welcome to come here for coffee if you get days like me when any other outing is a bit too much!! LO's can come and untidy my wreck of a playroom that I'm attempting to organise on Friday...

Loopy, you are very brave!! About the same age gap between my DS and DD and your DDs, only mine will be 4 and 2.9 when no3 arrives. They do play together all the time, but I sometimes feel like a ref at a wrestling match!

How do you manage two swimming? I'm not brave enough to take both on my own?

Mine cling like limpets! But probably if I took them more often they would be a bit more confident. DS currently on waiting list for lessons, hopefully he will start next term.

Are you missing Portsmouth yet?
