Coffee mornings - bumps and babes or mums and tots??

So I still haven't made it to a coffee morning but as DD is almost 14 months old and is now napping closer to noon (rather than 9:30am making most of the meets impossible!), am thinking of going to one. Just wanted to confirm with those of you that attend regularly - I would assume the bumps and babes have younger babies there - so I should look at the mums and tots?? Also, any other newbies thinking of going soon? :)

OMG congratulations Plumie - how far along are you?? I'm still figuring out how to handle one so am not sure when I'll actually be ready for # 2:\: When do you get back? Let's definitely meet up at some point soon! All the best x 15 weeks :) Yes - will make contact when we are back, would be lovely to see you again and the girls can have a play ;)

I know - still gob smacked that I have a 13 month old toddler?!?! And Nr 2 on the way already ;) DD will be starting nursery a few mornings a week when we get back to Dubai! We were doing swimming at The Hayya in The Meadows (the one which we did Aqau aerobics at) and will be doing the advance class when the next term starts! I've heard rave reviews about Dawn, so may look into that option too! I had her at Kidville for a gym class last year, and I cannot highly recommend it enough! That could also be something you could look into if you don't make the coffee mornings?! Don't think I will be able to squeeze in much more, but maybe we can meet up one day soon? X

Hey Plumie - DD and I are doing great - I cannot believe our babies are a year old already!!! How is your DD doing? Are you going to any playgroups/activities etc? We have been doing the baby swim with Dawn for about 5 months now, which she LOVES :) and also The Little Gym at Ibn Battuta which is also tons of fun but I haven't made it to any coffee mornings/playgroups yet! I guess I'll give mums and tots a go - any chance you're heading to one in the near future :)

Hey GQ! How are you and your DD doing? I would say, assuming your DD is mobile, the Mums and Tots would be more suitable! I've only ever gone to the B&B's and know that most of the Mums were pregnant or their babies were still in the cruising phase! HTH
