 Topic: Wellington/Hutt Mums Excercise/Catchup
Posted: 11 July 2011 at 4:59pm |
Hi Everyone!
My name is Emma, I am 15 weeks along (due 1st Jan 2012) and this will be our first bubba, I am 23 and DP is 41.
I would really like to meet other mums/expectant mums in the Hutt area, I live in Lower Hutt (Wainui, but don't write me off just yet  ) and work in Kelburn at Vic Uni and I would like to start doing some aqua aerobics or aqua jogging but would like to have someone to do it with...
If you are keen let me know, if you aren't keen on the exercise but are keen on a friend then that is cool too 
Hope to hear from someone soon!

Hi Emma
I'd love to do some exercise, but would struggle to find someone to watch DD. But definitely keen on a new friend! I'm Heather, I'm 26 and I live in Maungaraki. Saying that, if you can find an aqua aerobics class or aqua jogging that is 7.15 or later I'd be able to get there after miss jojo is in bed. Looking forward to meeting you! My bub number 2 is due 15th Feb x

Hey Heather!
I'm glad there was someone *out there* was very worried I would be a loner in here
You are in luck with aqua jogging! It starts at 7.15pm at Huia pool on Mondays and Wednesdays, but if you wanted to meet up for coffe or something first that would be cool as Huia pool is closed this week. I work mon-fri 9-5 but have no plans on evenings or weekends.
I wish my bubs was due later than 1st Jan! hoping I will be a week or so late

I'm keen for a catchup, but not the aqua stuff - I'm retaining so much water that I would just float anyway!!!
Troutpout - good to see another charting girl UTD!!! I'm in Maungaraki too!!!!!

Tell you what then girls, do you fancy meeting for coffee one evening next week? Any night is good for me, just needs to be either before 6 or after 7 so I'm home for missies bed time. She's still on the boob otherwise I'd leave it to DH!

Yep any night is good for me, but probably after 7pm as I usually don't get to the hutt til about 5.45pm if that is ok with you girlies?
I don't know where in the hutt is open for coffee that late though so someone else wanna pick? I am not fussy (but I have entertainment book if we wanted to grab some food )

How about somewhere in Petone, is Thursday night good for you guys? All the cafes and restaraunts are open late, and most do some pretty yummy food.
Anyone got any favourite places? I really like adzuki bean, but I'll pretty much eat anything except chinese. Karen do you want to car pool?

Hey guys - I'm Charlotte, 27 and live in Johnsonville. I'm only 8 weeks along at the moment but I'll be looking at doing some aqua excercise later on too, though Wednesdays and Thursdays are out for me at the moment cos I have dance classes on those days.
By the way Emmat - my birthday is on the 1st of January. The one upside is that at least it's not Christmas day

Oooh Adzuki sounds good (and I have a 25% off voucher) Thursday is good for me will PM you my email address for facebook and mobile number.
Hey Charlotte, yeah I thought the upside was not xmas day lol!
There is a pregnancy aqua class at Kilbirnie pool on Sunday mornings 10.30am but it is $10/11 a pop, the other option is just going aqua jogging, which I think is available the whole time the pool is open (but will double check with Huia pool)

Hey everyone. Im Jase, im 24 from Lower Hutt. I'm hoping I can get my partner involved with some aquarobics or something similar at some point. We're expecting on the 1st of October. She's having a lot of back pain and im hoping that getting in the pool might help out a wee bit to relax her muscles a bit.. We're starting ante-natal classes this week @ Hutt Hospital, so hopefully we'll meet some people there already doing something similar :)

Hi everyone and thanks for the invite to this group Emma - don't think I would have found it otherwise! I'm keen to meet up with other mums-to-be but live in Kapiti and work in Wellington, so can't easily make it to the Hutt. Emma if you will be up this way sometime it would be great to meet up, otherwise I could do after work in town depending on when you normally finish?
If there are any Kapiti-based people out there I've found some pregnancy yoga classes on Monday nights at Raumati Beach. Going for my first class tomorrow and really looking forward to it!
