Hi Emma

Welcome to the forum!

How is your pregnancy going? Looking forward to hearing more from you as your pregnancy progresses and your little one arrives!

I'm Jenny, mum to William and James

Thank you.

Pregnancy is going really well....I'm one of the lucky ones, no morning sickness! Apart from the greasy hair, spotty face and breaking nails! I thought pregnancy was meant to give you a 'glow'!

Nice to meet you....look forward to chatting to other mums/mum to be

Hi Emma, welcome and congratulations! I seemed to get more spots when I had a girl too. Not fun! How are you feeling otherwise?

I'm Louise, I'm 34 and live in Westcliff. I'm married to Kester and have three kids, Felix who is 5, Iris who is 4 and Dexter who is 11 weeks tomorrow.

If you fancy a chat and want to get to know everyone, come and say hello in the daily thread! It's where we do a lot of our chatting and is a lovely way of getting to know people.

Thank you. The joys of being pregnant I suppose! She's worth it though! I'm feeling fine....bit tired but other than that normal!

Nice to meet you Louise

I will do....I want to get to know other mums, if there are any mum and baby groups around, don't want to sit in when I have her, want her to bond with other babies and I can meet other mummies!

Hi Emma. My name is Lisa and I have 3 children aged 10,7 and 2 and live in Colchester. I've worked as a maternity nurse for the last 7 years advising mums on feeding, sleep care and development with their babies.

I am the resident 'Baby expert' on the Essex mums website and you will find me in the 'Ask the expert' section of the forum, so feel free to come and ask as many questions as you like once your little one arrives.

My new book The blissful baby expert is available to download on Amazon for only £1.03 and getting great reviews from mums & mums to be. You don't need a kindle as such to download-kindle apps can be downloaded free to any apple device, android phones, and pc and laptops. Any kindle book is then sent wirelessly to your device.

Look forward to chatting with you and good luck with the rest of your pregnancy.

Hey Emma

I'm new to this site. I'm also a first time mum; my daughter is 3 months old and live in Chelmsford. Really want to get to know other new mums; I'm the first one out of my group of friends to have a baby.

How are you getting on with the pregnancy?

[emma b]

Hi Sophia

Congratulations! How is motherhood? Me too, want to meet other mummies and babies!

Pregnancy has been fine, pretty easy....so far. No morning sickness just swollen feet!

How was your pregnancy?
