Babes in Scotland this year - shall we have our own thread?

680 replies

whinegums · 10/03/2008 12:18

Hi, I can't see any up to date antenatal threads for mums to be in Scotland, anyone want to join in this one? I think there are a few Scottish mums on the due in June thread, so I wondered if we should have our very own for all of this year's Scottish crop?

That's good dizzy - you will feel better knowing that your mum is being cared for well.

Take care xx

Thanks minipink! Congratulations on your baby girl and same to you mcchesters! Hope Abie & Aidan are behaving themselves! Aidan arrived on my anniversary! He should always get a nice weekend near his birthday for celebrations .

What an exciting thread all these babies arriving, hope sweetkitty is doing well!!

mibbes · 18/07/2008 19:55

Hello Scottish ladies, I hope you don't mind if I join. I recognise a few names from other threads esp twinklingfairy .

Congrats on new arrivals, how exciting !

Does anyone have advice/comments on NCT classes in the Falkirk/Stirling area ? Am undecided whether to go to these or NHS classes.

mibbes - I haven't been to any NCT classes but have heard very good reviews and there is no reason why you can't attend both...

Congrats by the way!!

minipinkscottish · 22/07/2008 11:17

Morning everyone xx Any more arrivals?

Abbie was weighed today and is now 7lb 11oz and doing really well and of course she is gorgeous and scrummy too!!!

sparkletoes · 22/07/2008 14:31

Good news for Abbie sounds like she has a healthy appetite - long may it continue!

Yes anymore for anymore??

mibbes · 22/07/2008 18:49

This is a very quiet thread - is everyone away having their babies ?
Anyone know of any PG yoga/exercise classes in the Stirling/Falkirk area ?
Congrats on baby Abbie - love the name

minipinkscottish · 25/07/2008 08:21

Morning - hello to all newbies

Where is everyone? Any more babies?

xxGoing to cinema today to see Mama Mia and taking Abbie with me I did this with DS4 and it was great so I'm really looking forward to it

dizzydixies · 25/07/2008 14:13

minipinkscottish · 26/07/2008 08:51
