Hey guys,
Hope I'm not jumping in line here but I haven't been able to make the last couple of coffee groups due to feeding times but would love to host the next one at mine. That way I can't miss out 
I was thinking Fri 10am PM me if you need the address. Hope the time suits. All welcome

Oh cool, it's not me then! I figure it's probably easier for those who have kiddies out-of-womb to have them at their houses (save them organising the kids to go out) for now, then maybe once I've got my kiddy out of my womb I can have one here to save me from figuring out how to leave the house (though I hope it's not as stressful and complicated as it sounds!).
As you were ladies
