Hey there, I have lived in Whangaparaoa for just under one year now. I live with my husband and daughter who is 15 months old. I am finding it quite hard to meet new people, and it would be great to meet mums who have had problems with PND !! I am a lot better now, but still have some bad days !!!
Anyway, I hope someone in Whangaparaoa reads this post and I would love to meet new people - especially those with the same problem as me !! |

| Hi there. Not in Whangaparoa but know what you mean. I am in Fox Glacier and all the other babies in town are much younger, my daughter is almost 8 months, so our visits to the under 1's group is getting boring. I think we all get the baby blues and some times not just straight after birth. Let me know if you want to keep in touch. |

Hi! I'm not in Whangaparaoa, but I'm not far away (Orewa). I have a 21month old boy and have had a bumpy road with my PND and anxiety. These days I'm doing much better, but still have off days. Would love to meet you and your wee girl  -------------

Hi there !!! I didn't expect any replies to this - so I'm stoked you wrote back - I would love to meet up at some stage if you are still keen, we could meet at a cafe in Orewa, or at the beach, whatever you prefer, I'm easy !
How about next week some time ? |

Monday too soon? Or I could do Thursday after Cale's swimming (around 10am?), or Friday. Just let me know what suits. Orewa House is lovely (it has a garden and toys for the kids - added bonus!)

| Hi - i could do monday after 1.30pm, or Thursday after 1.30pm - would that work for you? I work at an early childhood centre in Red Beach till 1.30 most days, so any day is fine just after 1.30. Do you mean "Walnut Cottage"? - I have taken Sophie there before - it was awesome, I had my coffee and cake while she played !! |

Yes, that's the one! Really good value too. Ok, could you do around 3pm? Cale sleeps from 12 til about 2.30pm most days. -------------
