Oct Buddies Weekly Lunches

[SyL]

Hi Everyone,
I'm also new to this forum and similar to Little Bub my due is October 24. However, I currently am in the US and expect to move to HK sometime in July. I hope I can meet up with some moms for lunch then.

Where are new mommy's living? I've heard a lot about Discovery Bay and am focusing on renting there. Does any one have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Welcome Little-Bub and SyL

I would love to meet you Bets and gidget but my brother-in-law is visiting and am a bit tied up for the next week. I had my 19 week scan today which was really exciting although we were disappointed to see that baby was too shy to reveal its sex : (
Too impatient to wait so going to see Dr Dawkins on Monday and hope he can find out for us! Feel baby kicking everyday now which is really fun but I don't know if I'll be saying the same when the karate practise keeps me up at night!!

Hope you are all well,

Sunrays

Hi Everyone,

I've been out of HK for the last week, so a bit disorganised with the lunches!

Still keen for a lunch in Central tomorrow?
We could do a pub lunch in Lan Kwai Fong, maybe Bulldogs 12.30 ?

Let me know,

Cheers,
Matty.:bighug

Welcome Syl,
Good luck with your move to Hong Kong.
Are you doing a reccie here first to look around? Discovery Bay is great for families, but doesn't suit everyone becuase of the commute.

Hope you get to see bubbas sex on Monday Sunrays, sounds like you have a real live wire!

Matty I'm good for the Bulldogs at 12:30. I won't be able to check in here again before tomorrow, so I'll see you there {and you too Bets if you are still up for it!}

Thank you for the welcome Sunrays.

Gidget: My husband will have to make the commute to Central and I don't know how he'll feel after a few months of making the commute...so we definitely have to think about this. What's the closest hospital to Discovery Bay? I hear good things about Matilda and will definitely check that out, but I fear it may be too far of a commute?

Hi SyL,
I can highly recommend Doscovery Bay. I have lived there for nearly 4 years and haven't regretted it at all.
It's really not that much of a commute. I work in Pok Fu Lam and travel from DB every day. It's so convenient and hassle-free only 25 mins. in the ferry. There's no need to ever worry about traffic jams.
It's a great place to bring up kids. Everyone's got them there, that's why it's also referred to as 'Delivery Bay'. The air is much cleaner and there's heaps of room for kids to run around!
Good luck with whatever you decide.

Hello there,

at first i was confuse with baby kicking and bubble burst in my tummy but now i m pretty sure that was a kick. saw him/her kick while getting my ultrasound. and sometimes im worried he/she is quite.

if you arer worried your baby is quite.
i did this little experement. SUGAR
sugar works just for everyone. even unborn..yes, they go crazy too..kicking all over the place. sometime its just a tap othertime a powerful kick you can see you belly moves alot ..i get freak out..like thier is an octupos or something trying to get out. but i can tell my baby is fine

baby kicking

Hi all,
It's been a cuple of weeks since my last post. I wanted to let you know too that i have had kicking too, it started last Tuesday at 21 weeks and was so amazing. Had flutters before but they are definitely getting stronger. I also experimented-with caffeine. Had too much tea one afternoon (High tea at Penninsula-wonderful, if you've never been) and he kicked all night long. Cola also does it.
See you all soon for a lunch...

Evening get together.

Hi Everyone,

Can anyone make an evening get together next week?

I was thinking next Thursday the 8th maybe 6pm somewhere in Soho/Central.

Let me know if anyone is interested.

Cheers,
