:wave: I live in Ballarat!!! :yelclap:
Though I work full time, so don't often get time to get out myself socially, but it would be lovely to get to know you!
I have a little man who is 7mnths.
How long have you been in ballarat for? I bet the weather is a shock coming from QLD!
Oh and I have searched hi and low on bubhub and I am the only person I have found from here......:cool:
Yay:smiliedance: Some else to brave the cold weather. My Dh and i grew up here, we lived in QLD for nearly three years, but came back because of family.. Been back since easter... Would love to get to know you too. PM me for my email details if you like. Maybe we could meet up, if you have a day off. But just talking to someone else who lives here would be good too. Hope to chatt soon..

I think the ballarat mums must be a bit slow in discovering the delights of Bubhub.........I have felt very lonely here for ages, yay for you!:smiliedance:
I am not from ballarat.. however we do go there often.. DH is into gold detecting.
So just popping in and saying hi :wave:

Well.. um.. oh.. he.. um.. actually hasn't found any ! :thumbsdown:
I think he's too fast.. but he has come home smiling.. showing me old nails, coins, bullets and other stuff he has found. He joined up with a club and they go on camps together, but he does venture out on his own. I only sometimes go up with him.. otherwise i stay home.. cause i find it a little bit boring.. But now i have an excuse to go to ballarat !
Sal just Pm you. Hi Anna, im home most of the time so if you want to come over for a chatt and coffe Pm me.. Where do you live? are you far from Ballarat?

Hi everyone,
I live in Ballarat and have a 7 month old daughter, i dont know anyone in ballarat since my partner and i moved here two years ago and all our family lives back in Cranbourne.
I live in Balla the Rat! I don't have a little one yet (am 36 weeks so not long to go!) but would love to catch up with you guys sometime if you get together. I'll keep an eye on this thread....

oh wow! there are people here! eloise is not the only mum in ballarat, im so excited! :smiliedance:i finally have internet so have been searching for groups here in ballarat but everything is in the 'early' morning and i find it hard to get out the house in the am as dear little xavier isn't a morning person and i don't drive.
I love walking and i know there is an established walking group that meet at 10am on a friday so me and a friend are going to try and meet at lake wendouree friday afternoons if anyone is interested. Her little boy is 5 months old and xavier is 7 weeks.
maybe we could all get together start something up???!!!
Hi, that sounds good to me... as long as you guys don't mind if I waddle. My hubby is nervous about me walking anywhere. I was going to walk to the hairdresser today (1.3 km's) but he insisted I drive the car, in case I go into labour! It's raining today so I actually will be taking the car but I miss walking and really want to stretch my legs! At least if I go into labour at the lake, I'll be close to the hospital.... :laughing:
beebee and me
18-06-2011, 11:54
oh gosh i think maybe we should wait till afterwards lol! i kinda had to stop walking at 34 weekscoz the 3 km into town just drained me, that sucked... 6 weeks of being house bound! do you know what you are having?
Yes we're having a boy... got a girl's name picked out too tho, just in case! I haven't done any walking of late so you're probably right. Hitting 6 k's all at once would probably be a shock to my system! I'll still keep an eye on this thread, it would be fun to get together and get some exercise once the baby comes. :) Do you feel confident leaving the house with a 6-7 week old? I only ask because I'm wondering how I would go with one the same age. The time flies! :laughing:
beebee and me
26-06-2011, 13:31
yeah, although 6k might bring you on lol! 2 days before i had my son i climb the bunninyong tower twice and did the bush walk around there lol. i kinda have xavier in a routine so i know that if i put him down for his nap in the pram he will pretty much sleep the whole walk! so i do all my shopping and exercise in the arvos. time flies something crazy! his already 8 weeks.... gets his neddles on wednesday.. i am NOT looking forward to that... i don't know who will cry more.... me or him!?
Aw I know, I have thought about that too. I think I couldn't help crying so let it all out! At least he won't remember, poor little fella. Good luck!
Hi Girls,
I don't live in Ballarat yet, but we are moving there in November. I thought it would be nice to get to know some Mammas before I get down there to make the transition easier.
I have a 1 year old daughter, Zadie and am due with our second in 2 weeks.
Hubby and I are taking a big leap moving to Redan as we have no family or friends down there. We are both excited about the adventure though!
I look forward to getting to know you all in the coming months...

Hi Kelly, thanks for replying back to me, it's really hard to go out and meet new people when I have 2 little boys at home and this seemed like a great way to get to know people.
Would love to meet you some time, I dont know what you like doing whether it be walking or catching up for a coffee but it would be nice to catch up for a chat.
Hope you have a nice Christmas and New Years and definately after that we should arrange a time and day to do something :yes:

Hi Sharon! I am new to Ballarat and would love to meet other Mammas. I am 34. I have 2 girls, 18 months and 5 months. I am free just about every day of the week as we haven't started Playgroup yet.
I live in Redan and have transport, so happy to meekt anywhere! :smiliedance:

29-12-2011, 12:03
Hi Ladies!! I finally have internet again!!:smiliedance:
I would so love to meet up with you all! I'm still living in Redan/Newington, I don't have my own transport, but I walk everywhere. My little man is 8 months old.... we still havent joined a play group, but he really needs to start interacting more with little kiddles, and me with mammas! We are starting to go a little insane by ourselves:freakingout: I am free every day except Monday and Wednesday mornings. Would love just to meet up, and chat over coffees, or for walks (as long as they arent at crazy hours of the morning!), or play dates, or anything- gym dates, yoga dates, ANYTHING!!:yes:
Yay! This is exciting. We are going crazy here!
I miss meeting with my Mother's Group so much. I can't do too much walking at the moment as I am on crutches. I broke my femur in September and I am still in the process of healing.
I would prefer to meet at someone's house, an indoor play centre or a park rather than a coffee shop. My 18 month old will go nuts if I try and keep her in the pram while I have a coffee. She is a free range kid!
I am happy to PM any of you my number so we can get cracking on meeting up. I am so lonely down here (enjoying the area though).
Hi ladies
Just wondering if i could join you? I dont have any children YET! My partener and i have just moved to ballarat 6 weeks ago. We have been ttc for 11months and have had a cpl of mc :(
Id really like to meet some like minded mothers or mothers to be or mothers in waiting!
Hope youre all well and hope to hear from u soon!

Hi Edi
Sounds like we are in a similar boat :) Unfortunately my husband and I have to under-go fertility treatment but we are hopefully starting next month so we are very excited about that but I know how hard it is waiting to conceive!
Also, my husband and I only moved here in August so are still trying to make new friends and get to know people.
To all the other Ballarat ladies, please feel free to PM me, I would love to catch up with you all even though I haven't yet got kids :)
Yay! At least there is someone around here in the same boat. Sorry to hear about the treatements!! Im currently seeing a chinese therapist for accupuncture and herbal teas. Even if it does nothing to help the fertility side of things if it helps with reducing stress etc then thats great!

Hi everyone,
It's nice to see other mums and mums to be are in the same boat, living in Ballarat but not really getting out much and meeting new people. I would love to catch up and meet you all, this time of year gets so lonely now my play group and mothers group arent running.
If anyone has an idea about where you would like to catch up and if you'd like to meet me then please let me know, I cant wait to get out.

Maybe we should try to arrange a group catch up? I am working 4-5 days at the moment but have the next couple of days off (go back to work on the 3rd) but will hopefully have Fridays off in the new year. Alternatively I am pretty available after work or on weekends :)
Perhaps we could have a picnic in the park near the lake to accommodate those already with children...what's everyones availability? I can assist with transport for anyone without any so long as you have a baby seat.
Anyone got any good plans for new years? Think hubby and I are staying in with a bottle of champers and a cheese platter unless we get any better offers lol :)
Sounds like a great idea! I have until the 9th off from work YAY!! Lol! I can also assist in transport if need be. Picnic sounds lovely! Down near the lake opposite the war memorial is there are a couple of bbqs and playgrounds etc?
Champers and.a cheese platter sounds great thats pretty much what we're doing too :)

I can do a picnic in the park if there is some type of seating nearby (can't sit on the ground with a broken leg). Am also happy to have a catch up at my house too...
Shall we include partners for the picnic? I am busy most of this week as my Dad is visiting from Sydney. Other than that though I don't work outside home so I can do any time... :celebrate:
angel382
31-12-2011, 12:11
Well if we are going to include partners we better make it a weekend so that they can come :)
How does Sunday 8th or Sunday 15th suit everyone? We could make it a midday thing for lunch, play, chats etc if that suits everyone (I am sure there are picnic type tables around to sit at, but I can bring you a chair to sit on too)

I don't mind what time, except I have a physio appointment at the hospital at 10:00am. Afternoon is fine with me.

03-01-2012, 20:00
Bummer! Ive got Mother's Group catchup on Friday, so that counts me out this time. Next time for sure!
I've been to both Funbugs and Happy Jack's, and I'd probably say Happy Jack's is the pick of the two (by a hair), only because the toddler play area seems to be more of a hit with my 17 month old.

It would be nice to meet up regularly every few weeks or whenever everyone is available. Its easy for me because i dont work yet but i hope we can stay in contact and become friends. Todds a bit full on so anywhere indoors or even a park thats enclosed. I wouldnt even mind catching up at somewhere like maccas or funbugs where we can sit down f or a coffee and chat and the kids have a playground to go on.
Thanks for a nice few hrs and i look forward to meeting again.
Id love to meet SOON!!!! Haha im free after 4 weekdays and most weekends or even during my lunch break. My work schedule is fairly flexible. Hope u ladies had fun and i hope to meet and get to know you soon :)

Its amazing what a little human contact can do for ones soul isn't it lol. Even Xavier has been buzzing the whole evening, he definitely needs more contact with kiddies! Also think he may be just a tad smitten with your little princess jade lol.

I look forward to catching up in the next week or two and getting to chat a bit more :cheerleader1::cheerleader2:and Kelly I promise next time Todd wont throw donuts at you.

Nice to hear everyone had such a wonderful time.
Eloise & Jade, I don't live far away so if you need some adult contact in between when we can meet as a group you are always welcome to drop by for coffee & chat when I am home, just send me a MSG or I can drop past to save you trying to get to me.
As for a group meet, what about next Friday or Saturday depending when everyone is available at Fun Bugs or the other place like it (not sure of the name of it).

Don't worry about the donuts sharon, it's cool :) he's just a kid and you had your hands full!
I am so glad everyone wants to meet frequently.
I am more than happy to do coffee at my place. We have a nice big yard and lots of toys. I think I am pretty close to you Eloise, so not too far to walk.
And I will find my lost recipe and bake cookies!
I am at home 24/7 and it can get a bit boring.

I am on Darling Street down the end near Maxi Foods.
I wanted to bake cookies for our meet up today but I couldn't find my recipe. I will search again tomorrow...
I am free most of next week if you want to pop over Eloise (or anyone else)...

I don't live that way but I'm more than happy to drive in and see you all if you want to do catch-ups at anyone's house or your more than welcome to come to my house in Miners Rest :wave::wave:
Cant wait until the next catch up, haven't stopped talking bout it since I left.

We need to pick a day/time ladies :)
Everyone is welcome at my place too but I don't have kids so it's easy for me to travel to fit in with everyone else. :cheerleader1:

Hi again ladies.... After Jade mentioned yesterday that her old mothers group formed a Facebook group I thought I would take the liberty to create one for us (hope no one minds)! I called it Ballarat Hubbers if you want to search for it and join :)
I have locked it down to members only being able to see it, as there are people on my Facebook that I don't want to know that my husband and i are trying to conceive (mainly because I don't want a million questions every time I see them and have to explain about needing fertility treatment etc lol) so if you post on my personal wall it would be awesome if we could keep that quiet but otherwise I thought it would be a better way to keep updated on meetups and also get to know one another better. :hyper:
Hey kelly i cant find it on facebook so not sure how to join it??? Eeek im so behind with this stuff lol! Id like to meet next weekend sometime? Im also happy to host something at my place but i fear i would lack entertainment for the bubs

Hey there, I think I might actually have to add you to the group. PM me your Facebook name and I will try to find you and add you to the group :)
Next weekend should be fine for me :)
I will have the next catch up at my place if you are all happy with that??? You will have to excuse the mess though, my excuse is I have 2 under 2!!! :laughing:
What day is going to be best? Would love to get a day where we could all make it...

Hi JJZK :D I moved from Melbourne, so not too far. This will be my first Ballarat winter and I'm already thinking of hibernating! Where did you move from?
We moved from Jervis Bay in NSW. So far we are loving it down here. People are really nice.
I do miss my family a lot though...

Thank you. My baby was in royal children's hospital for the first 4 weeks so just starting to enjoy it :)
Oh no, not the best start. Glad you are starting to enjoy things now.

Has anyone else got young babies?
I have a 2 year old, a 1 year old and I'm due with number 3 in Feb.
Give baby and you plenty of time to settle into life together. The sleeping should settle down soon, fingers crossed!

Todd and Liam are really well. They started their first week in daycare because I found a day job at a little cafe up Lake Gardens. Time flies - Liam is already nine months old and when we first met down the lake he was only two months old.
I was really surprised when I saw you were expecting your third - thats exciting news for you. Bet the girls are looking forward to having a brother or sister. Hope you are good and the pregnancy is going well (hopefull no morning sickness) :yes:

Hi madgie,
I am also a stay at home Mum in Ballarat. I have a 2.5 year old, 1.5 year old and 3 week old.
I love a chat! And a cuppa!
Wow your a busy girl with all your bubs so close together!! I just found this site yesterday, i'm so happy someone responded.. Thank you
I'm not sure if i replied to you or posted another thread?? I'm new to all this forum chatting... How are you coping with a new baby and two toddlers, bet there's never a dull moment!!

It is hectic! But I love it!
Have you lived in Ballarat for long? We have been here about 15 months, and we love it.
I bet it's hectic, i think it is with my two little ones! My older boy is a huge help.. I grew up here, left for the gold coast for 10yrs. Been back again now for almost 9years, i think it's a great place to bring up a family.
Glad you enjoying it, where are you from?
