I just had the same problem with Hats. I got a couple of plain white ones from pumpkin patch in the end. They seem to be the only ones selling sun hats at the mo. Although they weren't cheap  Although I think I saw at least one type of sun hat at farmers Eastgate. I think they had plain white ones. Not sure of sizes though.
Isn't it ridiculous! Don't worry about bringing anything. I'll have drinks and snacks sorted Yay! Hope you can make it. -------------

I think I might actually be closer KA, cos I can just go straight down marshlands.
If I was you I would just go down main north and then along QE2, then it's easy from there. -------------

Well somehow i dont think i will be making it to the meet up . it is now 12.45am and Amelia has only just gone down about 5 min ago. she has been up all night with very bad reflux and coughing and spluttering .... and i can hear her stirring right now so maybe she hasnt gone down for the night I may make it , but i doubt it at this stage , think i will try and sleep in if Amelia will let me and think i should stay home tomorow with her coughing and splutering. if i dont make it , i hope you all ave a good time , i will have to try and make another one . ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Sorry I didn't make it Bailey and I didnt get out of the hospital till after 4pm but only on leave as we will need to go back in the morning (he's not eating or drinking , they thought sending him home would help make him want to eat but nope.)
I hope to make it next week |

Poor wee Bailey Hope he's doing better today Trish.
Was awesome to meet you Julz Hope you can make the next one. Haha KA the backyard stuff is a bonus not that my two seemed all that pleased to share! It's just a shame the sand at the beach wasn't dry because the kids go mad for it and it's such a fantastic way to tire out kids, letting them run riot in the sand -------------

Hi Julz,
Would love to come to the next coffee group and meet everyone. I'm Lisa, and my daughter is Jessica (she's 16 weeks). We love getting out and about and meeting other mums & babies
Question about the forum - how do you get a picture or something to come up at the bottom of your post? |

Do you mean my signature ? with the wee pic and countdown to birthday ? click on it and it should take you to a website that you can create it oin , then you copy and past the link at the end to you profile . Im not too sure when the next coffee group is , im sure the other ladies do tho :) you could try going on the Due may 09 forrum too ( im assuming jessica was born in may?) thats a forrum for babies all born in may . im in the july 09 forrum . there realy interesting too . nice to talk to other mums with babies going through the exact same stages :) ------------- http://lilypie.com">

yea going overdue was not fun at all - and my labour started around midnite on the sat nite but she wasn't born until 636pm Mon nite - was a long time! I ended up with a c-sec in the end. But the good thing was she never stressed during the labour, I was exhausted ny the end tho, lol.
I think shes teething at the moment so shes been very grizzly and grumpy. ------------- http://www.alterna-tickers.com">

Oh Yay! More girls in the group hehe. Hi Lisa, I'm also Lisa a 24 year old Mum to 16 month old twin girls Hazel & Esme
Our little group mainly consists of little boys at the mo so it's always nice to see some more girls. I can't for the life of me remember where the next group is but it should be this Weds we usually have it every 2 weeks around 10am on a weds and we rotate houses. We have people from all different ends in CHCH. I myself am in Southshore about as far from Hornby as you can get! KA Do you know where the next one is? Julz it was awesome meeting you last time. I just sent you a PM. It's nice to have another Mum on my side of town, And Amelia is such a wee cutie. -------------
