Re: duchess using hypnotherapy for birth?

Drugs administered to the mother are absorbed by the baby so it's best to keep their use to an absolute minimum. A drugged- up baby is lovely and sleepy but will not want to feed and that will cause problems in establishing breast feeding in particular. :(

Re: BMF on the Common

I agree that "we don't always want to go for a quiet stroll" but that is what many people want to do - away from traffic fumes and the stresses and strains of working life. if you want to exercise in a group, go to a sports centre, running track, whatever. The truth is that local authoriti...

Re: BMF on the Common

Our local parks are not intended for this kind of frenetic activity - I like to stroll quietly and relax, not have a group of sweating, grunting neaderthals whooshing past. I have been forced off the paths in my local park by these squaddies, whilst walking dogs and small children. One Sunday mornin...

Re: Au pair with bad body odour

Oo err! Just trying to get things into some kind of perspective. Didn't mean to step so heavily on so many middle-class toes. Hope it all works out for you. Peace.

Re: Au pair with bad body odour

Why do I have the temerity to surf an SW mums' network if I'm not middle-class and angst-ridden with nothing more important to worry about? Good question but I didn't know there was such a narrow profile for subscribers. Hilarious!

Re: Au pair with bad body odour

Oh dear. Someone actually said they can't imagine anything worse. Really? I can think of a few thousand : poverty, ill health, disability, domestic violence... If a smelly au pair were all some millions of women around the world had to worry about the world would be a paradise to live in. Middle cla...

Did Clapset fail to mention "The Great Unwashed" - or did I miss that post?

Re: Occupy London at Battersea Park

I wish that people would try to understand issues before posting such bigoted responses. Wandsworth Against Cuts together with local parents and children have been campaigning for many months to highlight Wandsworth's plans for closing the three adventure playgrounds in Wandsworth. Look at the websi...

Re: Occupy London at Battersea Park

Occupy London ... Occupy your own garden and while you are at it get a job This is a real "Daily Mail reader" type response. Please be aware that Occupy are there to lend support to all the campaigners who have been trying to stop Wandsworth Council from closing the Battersea Park Adventu...

Re: Would you support "Active Wandsworth Sunday Streets"?

I would definitely support it. The one good thing about Jubilee weekend was that some streets were closed to cars for 24 hours and children played safely in the street for the first time in their lives - just like I did when I was young. I don't own a car or a bike and use my legs or public transpor...

Re: All Wandsworth Adventure Playgrounds to Close

Wandsworth Council are being disingenuous in the way they are presenting their plans for the adventure playgrounds. They are removing the staff, who are essential to the safety and well-being of the children using the playgrounds. In Kimber Road they plan to remove the structures which form the adve...
