I hate to see unanswered posts. I live in the Midlands now, but Mum lives in Kendal, and I have a schoolfried in Arnside, so spent a lot of time there as a teenager.

I am not preg by the way....!

Yes, hello!!!

I'm in Kirkby Stephen so south lakes ish, and due in September. I'm really looking to find people in similar situations up here as I'm terrified of being stuck in a remote rural location for months on end.

Thank you Sloggies! I hope your good karma comes back round to you!! x I love Arnside it is such a special place and I can't wait to be exploring it all with Junior!!

Hi Daisybell! Thanks for getting in touch - hope you are well? I am 14 weeks to day and due mid october. So excited - Happy to keep in touch x

I used to go on holiday regularly to holgates and we normally stay at the wolf house once a year. Lucky you getting to live there :) I went to uni in Ambleside and still have friends who live there and in Kendal. I think theres a lot of play groups going on in that area if thats any help.

I love Wolf house - A fav stop on a sunday walk - in fact I thought the other day it would a perfect place to have a naming ceremony! I am a teacher - did you do teacher training at Ambleside? I went to Liverpool uni and did PE but lived with all the outdoor eds - we had contacts with other outdoor eds up in Ambleside. Going to start swimming at HOlgates - just waiting for a delivery of my whale suit!! lol!!!

Yeah I was at ambleside, left in 2002. Loved it there, wish I could afford to move back! I'm thinking of booking a couple of nights camping with the kids at holgates. They love it esp the pool.

Hi. I'm in Kendal. Moved in 2 weeks before DD was born, made a long lasting friend in the mat unit (HCMU). Don't worry, you'll have toddler groups etc etc

My No 2 is coming in September sometime... To be honest i was so knackered first time i didn't have time to stay in touch with many of the new folk i met with babies.

Holgates pool is far warmer than lancaster when you decide to take the wee one swimming.

Hi, i live in Arnside and due in September. Cant wait, but very scared as it's my first. Only lived here since August last year, but your right, Arnside is a lovely place.

Hi, I live in Lancaster but grew up in Warton. I'm expecting my first in August so can let you know how it goes!! Grin

Hello, I was wondering if anybody attends any baby groups in arnside, Cumbria? I had a c section 15days ago so can't drive for another 4 weeks and wanted to meet some new mums in the village but I'm struggling to find any group or know which ones are suitable for newborns! Thanks x
