expecting mum looking for coffee group

HI Nicola, Im due Dec 4th and also looking for a group of Mum's to hang out with. I would be keen to get something started. By New Windsor do you mean in Central Auckland?

Yeah he's going to be called Noah :) how about you?

Im on the Shore but can travel anywhere really.

Hehe thats random Im a school teacher too, and my Noah is being named after the loveliest and most gorgeous 5 year old Noah you have ever seen. First child for me also :)

Im finishing work end of term 3, so 3 weeks time then I will have plenty of time on my hands until baby is born! How about you?

Riley is a gorgeous name it was on my list.

I teach at Otahuhu Primary, I have got year 0-2 so they keep me on my toes! I was on fixed term there till the end of term 3 and I would have gone permanent after that but decided not to as I want to stay home with baby for a few years. I have only been teaching this year, had a career change and went back to uni to do a grad diploma. Used to be a journalist! How long have you been teaching? I used to visit your school when I was a reporter, always thought it was a nice school, but Im more of a junior teacher by nature.

Baby prep is going well, we have bought pretty much everything we need because of me finishing work early, so I'm almost a little too prepared! hehe but still some things to buy. I feel prepared with items and clothes but not prepared for actually having and caring for a baby!

15 days sounds so much nicer than 3 weeks, hehe I am home sick today so having a rest then will just be counting down the days after that.

I reckon, I am struggling just to get through the day and I fall asleep on the couch at home. Teaching is hard enough without being pregnant lol 2 weeks to go for me!!

Id love to meet for a coffee if you're keen when you finish work or sooner, up to you. In my Dec forum we also have some Auckland Mums as I expect you do in your forum as well, so maybe we could get a little coffee group going for before babies and after that. We are having a December mums coffee meeting later in the month- with you being due on Nov 28 there's quite a chance you might be a Dec Mum anyway and I could be a November Mum (hope so! lol) you just never know!

Let me know what you think :) I could make another post seeing if others want to come.
