Have 2 children, and baby due next month. Would like to hear from other mums in area and arrange meet ups. Have transport, so distance not a problem.

Where do you live in Derbyshire?

I live in Birmingham.

2 kids, 2yrs and 5 months.

Hi both. I live on the Notts/Derbyshire border, have transport and a son of 4 & 1/2.

We love meet-ups (how did you miss the recent one in Ripley?), and would be happy to help find suitable locations.

Hear from you soon?

Hi there,
I live in Burton, but am willing to travel.
There are currently threads on Birmingham and Derby meets, at the moment.
Hope to meet you soon

I live in Kilburn, near Belper. Have only just joined Mumsnet, which is why I missed meet up in Ripley!! Hope there is another one soon, as its really near!! Thanks for advice on threads, as this is new to me, I`m still learning ropes. Will check them out.

Good luck with the baby, redfiasco. Hope you're feeling OK and managing to keep up with the children! I don't know Kilburn except as a signpost on the A38. Where will you have the baby?

That was all I knew of Kilburn until I moved here, is lovely village, but can be little claustrophobic!! Feeling ok now, bit emotional at times, but am enjoying being at home on maternity leave.
Will have baby at Derby City General Hospital, had daughters there,and was very happy with the care we got. Although will be staying there for shortest time possible!! Did you have yours there?

redfiasco, DCGH just down the road from me. I pass it regularly. I've only lived here 4 years, my kids were born in Worcester and Shrewsbury! However, dd had a spell in the Children's Hosp at DCGH. Lots of building work going on there just now.

If you get bored while you're waiting for the babe to arrive, get in touch! I find day times a bit quiet with both kids at school.

Hi! I live near Clay Cross (near Alfreton) so would be interested in a meet up. I have a DS who will be 5 in 2 weeks and a DD who will be 3 in 5 weeks. I work part time and have access to transport so can travel.

Hi. I am not from Derbyshire - from Sheffield - but as I have been on lots of the Derby meets I thought I'd come and say hello too.

I am 31, from Sheffield, married and have a 2yo DD.

MadameButterfly · 23/04/2004 10:43

Egypt, You are not too far away from me then, I am in Burton.
