Hi all, I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place.. I've just joined mumsnet. I'm new to Oxford, just moved from London but My partner has been here for many years. We're expecting our First baby in June :)
and I just thought it will be lovely to meet other expecting mums in the area to exchange ideas, go for coffee, just chat or meet up after our babies are born and we're finally ready for that lovely glass of wine/prosecco we've been waiting on for months now.. anyone out there up for that? we could meet in the city centre xx

I don’t live in Oxford. But I work in Oxford city centre. My baby is due in October x

Hi FutureMum, congrats on your baby, I was born in October myself... We should still be able to arrange something, what are your times like? are you flexible... if not we could just arrange something after work hours or during lunch breaks... I'm actually off to the city centre today to get a few stuff but let me know days and times that work for you.. you can inbox me that if you prefer X

Do you live in oxford city centre or surrounding areas? I am approx 20 mins away. Due September x

Liz3891 · 18/05/2018 21:08

Due mid-November! I live in north Oxford but work in the city centre a couple times a week.

FutureMum · 19/05/2018 07:26

Hello! I am in West Oxfordshire so best time for me would be lunchtime in the Westgate. Any time from mid June to mid September x

Hi everyone Smile I am due in September and live in Oxford. I would love to meet up! Is there a way we can do a group chat on here? Xx

Welcome to Oxford. I’d really recommend the Baby Cafe groups if you are planning to BF. Really great way to meet new people. One way to make a private chat group would be for everyone to message you their number and start a WhatsApp group maybe?

MummyInTheMaking1 · 20/05/2018 17:10

Hi EmsyW, welcome on board, I'm actually 10mins drive from the city centre x I guess as I'm new to Oxford, that's the first place that pops to my mind lol but in terms of meeting I guess we could all come up with a place that's convenient and relaxing for all of us x

Hi Ammithist, welcome... I don't know if it's possible to have a private group chat on here (if that's what you meant)... but like FoxgloveStar suggested we could start a whatapp one..

What suggestions have you guys got for meeting up? what do you think of starting a whatsapp group? should we start one now or after our initial meet up?
There are a few places I've been to with outside sitting space/gardens that are nice for a first meet up when we're ready as the weather is nice these days but any suggestions would be great x

Great idea. I am limited to the Westgate because I work next door and can only do during lunch hours x

Liz3891 · 21/05/2018 07:32

Westgate has some nice places up on the roof if it's a nice, warm day!

Ammithist · 21/05/2018 23:35

Sorry for late reply. I will PM you my number, Mummyinthemaking. Thank you for organising this 😊

I agree the Westgate is lovely in this weather with the open-air rooftop garden! Xx

MummyInTheMaking1 · 23/05/2018 12:28
