Hi, I'm new here.

I'm interested in hearing about any API groups or members already in the UK as my searches haven't found any!

Hi

I contacted Abby - she doesn't live in the UK anymore!

There is an API-UK yahoo group but there doesn't seem to be any activity on it at all.......

Sadly your right, it's not that active. I'm always around by email and telephone though!

I hope we get more people to sign up but it's hard in the UK as there are so many un-official groups and AP is less common due to our lovely history of non-AP parenting as a country.

Do you have a local LLL group, although I know there are few of them as well

Hi MamaLion

So happy to know there is at least one contact here in the UK! I've just joined the API-UK yahoo group (I'm guessing you know that ) but would it be possible to also be in e-mail contact with you? I've been hearing some quite interesting things about AP courses (!) recently and I'd love to be able to discuss that.

I am a member of LLL and have attended 3 different groups over the last 3 years (we moved) but my current one doesn't run toddler sessions and the series meetings are obviously more newborn/early days focussed. Plus they're also held on a morning I work at the moment.

Hi,

It's me again. From Natural mamas. it looks like not many parents from Uk are members of API. We should keep in touch.
