pregnant in aberdeen

[Sillyness]

hi, i'm moving to aberdeen in august and am 8weeks pregnant. anyone else about who is preggers too?

I guess starbucks, if it's too packed then tinderbox (can't remember if that's what it's called)? Anybody know if ineed and saoralba can come? Oh, and I apologise in advance if the little madam doesn't stop screaming - we've had a lot of that in the last few days :/

Hi girls, hope you're all doing well (screaming babies aside Sapphire). I'm still here - my midwife booked my induction appointment on Thurs and even that didn't scare the little monkey into making an appearance, so I guess I'll see you all on Weds!

2pm at Starbucks sounds good. My mum and dad are off this week (handily!) so they're going to look after DD and I can have a proper chat! I can ask if they want to look after any other little ones???

I?ll try to remember to mention to saoralba at NCT class tomorrow night. I should be there 3ish.

Had my midwife appointment today ? apparently AMH has installed a new pool (still just has the one) and apparently is very nice. New dimmer-controlled lighting, etc. Takes 40 minutes to fill the pool, and just one?s luck if you get it, but you can birth as well as labour in it.

Morning ladies, Spoke to Saoralba last night, but she won?t make it due to work. I?m still planning on making it work permitting, need to get something finished first.

Hi everyone,
so sorry, but i can't make it today. last minute plans mean we're driving to Dundee as soon as i've finished work to (fingers crossed) buy a new car!!!

Have a great afternoon and maybe anyone will want to meet up next week?

Thinking of you all!

NCT nearly-new sale on Saturday 26th February. Typically, I probably can?t go to this one either as we have visitors! www.nct.org.uk/in-your-area/aberdeen/NNS

Should still be there later ? boss is fine with me disappearing at 2.30, though it depends on a piece of work being done first, and that depends on someone else!

I am still not sure if i'm making it, might be able to pop in with the 4 year old for a quick coffee and off againbut would like to try so I can see you all.

Has anyone heard from LNT she hasn't been on this thread or facebook since Monday anyone think anything happening...i'll text her lol just to check.

We have all gone quiet...... is everyone ok.

I have news everyone...i'm back in the club! 14weeks tomorrow! whoop whoop!

meet up needed to show you my pics!

LNT - where's that baby???

Congrats LNT on the birth of your lovely little girl..... and Silly.... congrats again.... but don't forget you were always in our club...u started it! lol

Can't wait to see baby LNT and baby bump Silly.

Medee...u next

Hurrah for LNT's new one!

oh, that's fantastic news, Silly

I'm reaching the top of every list I am on, Karen - is very scary but exciting too! We were in Glasgow at the weekend, collecting all the baby stuff my parents had (Moses basket etc) so feeling a lot more organised. Just the pram to come and a few other bits and bobs and that is us sorted.

Woohoo, congrats Silly and LNT! Not long left for you now medee, when do you start mat leave?

Friday, and not a moment too soon! really struggled out of bed this morning.

Was so excited about NCT sale and now i've realised im working ALL day that day!! Boo!!

Anyway, hope all the babies and bumps and mums are doing well!

Meet up plans: i'll throw a date out there for thought...
how about friday 4th march about 2/2:30?

That's a possibility for me, though not till 3.30 once I have waved my mum off at the station (but assuming it is UQ as usual, that is fine)

UQ should be US ie Union Square!

sounds fine medee!

how does it suit other folk?

Yep, fine with me too. When is the NCT sale, anyone going?

Saturday 26th. I can't unfortunately as I have friends visiting, but as one is bringing me loads of her baby stuff I'm not complaining!

Great Sapphire! Re NCT sale, desperately want to go, but trying to swap a shift!
I think Karen is planning to go!

Planning on it but am pretty skint.

I can come to the meet, but I think we need to start looking for somewhere more toddler friendly for LNT. Would be easier for her then she could bring her eldest.

Hi folks

It's saoralba, namechanged recently :)

I start mat leave from one of my jobs on Friday too medee, can't wait.

4th sounds lovely to me, but I have a meeting starting at 2:15 so probably wouldn't be about until 3:30-4ish depending on how long it takes. Happy to meet anywhere in town as my meeting is at Broad Street.

I'll be at the NCT sale on Saturday. On the look out for some bargain nappies as we only have 15 so far and I'm fairly sure this is not enough.

good point, Karen. I'll be in town anyway, so whereever really.

Welcome back NotSaorAlba! I have no nappies yet, but a consignment of them on their way this weekend from my friend who's used them for her 3.

Wow, you two are brave using reusables! I would have liked to try them but I couldn't cope with the washing/drying as my flat is teeny tiny. It's amazing how much washing a LO can produce lol! I might go to the sale, shame it's not in the
afternoon though - might be a mission to get there on time
Does anybody know any toddler friendly places? The only place I've seen that has a little corner for children is cafe nero. Mind you, I'm sure LNT/Ineed would know some good places to go...

Hi Jolly,

I know someone that is selling some reusables. I have messaged her to find out how much she wants and what she has got. I can let you know as soon as I get a response and if you do not find any at NCT Sale you can let me know if you are interested.

Sapphire.. I am in the same boat. We have been back from our holiday for 2 weeks and have just caught up on our washing... I wouldn't mind but I did some while we were away too. I just have nowhere to hang it and refuse to use the tumble dryer cos it is rubbish and they use so much power.

I have FB'd LNT and ineed to ask her to read the thread re-meeting places.
