Optimum Bumps

Optimum Bumps is a free antenatal support group. It allows anyone with a baby bump the opportunity to meet others, in a friendly and informal setting, while learning a little something about pregnancy, birth and babies along the way.

Each week we have a different topic and sometimes this includes a special guest. However, please don't feel that is the only subject you can discuss during our meetings. Our discussions frequently go off on a tangent and our weekly topics are merely starting points. You can choose to come to every meeting or just to those that are of particular interest to you.

The meetings are primarily for those who are actually pregnant, but if you feel a bit too nervous to attend on your own, then do bring your partner, family member or friend along.

The meetings are from 7:30pm to 9pm on Thursday evenings, at Optimum Corner.

Although the sessions are free to attend, please do book tickets, via Eventbrite, so that I know how many are coming and to make sure we don't get overcrowded.

It did used to be based in Swindon, but moved to Devizes in 2019. If you wanted to travel to Devizes to attend, you'd be welcome to do so. It's not unusual to get people attending from Melksham, Calne, Chippenham, Trowbridge etc.

Mama needs new friends ✨

Hey mamas 🤍 I'm going to be honest — I'm at a season in my life where I'm craving real, genuine friendship. The kind where we actually check on each other. Where conversations go both ways. Where we can laugh, vent, cry, and just *be* without it feeling one-sided.

I'm a stay at home mom of 6 (yes, 6! 👏🏼) and my days are full but my cup feels a little empty in the friendship department. I'm looking for women who get it — the chaos, the beauty, the exhaustion, all of it.

If you're a mom who values deep, reciprocal friendship and you're also out here looking for your people — drop a 👋 below. Let's actually get to know each other. 🤍

Leaving your baby

Has anyone else not left their baby to be looked after by someone else (not dad) yet? I still don't feel ready but am being told I should be by now

Random but when you use a vibrator do you need to hold your lips open for it to touch the bean ?

It gets annoying because even if I open my legs I still need to hold the lips open to touch the bean and I have to do it the entire time my lips are literally sealed closed 🤣
