I googled it here and didn't find anything other than meetup groups. I'm SO not a fan of meetup groups... Maybe I'll ask my OB next time I see her, see if she knows of one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122570 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 18:05:48 +0000 cvbee 122570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I might also do baby and Mommy swim class at the beach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122569 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 18:05:13 +0000 cvbee 122569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't wait to go into our drop-in Wednesday afternoons for Moms with babies under 12 months. (It is at a centre called the EArly Years, which is a free drop-in centre normally for children and their caregivers under age 5.....there are lots of toys and the kids can learn to play with other kids, and there is a 'story time' circle at the end to get the kids used to school settings. It's a great place, and Wednesday afternoons they make it only for infants.) Two of my (not super close, but I'm sure to be closer soon) friends already go, so it's an easy thing for me to join and not be shy about. Apparently last week there were 18 Moms there! (And I live in a small town....population 5000). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122561 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 17:56:29 +0000 winniebee 122561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: There are different community programs in Boston - one is put on by ISIS (not sure if that is nationwide) and they have prenatal classes, classes for new moms of ages 0-6, classes for toddlers, music classes, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122541 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 17:33:36 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 122541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did one called "First weeks" at Birth and Beyond in Seattle. I still have at least one very close friend that we vacation with from that class. Well worth it and I learned so much from Ann Keppler (she also has a book that shares a lot of the information that she discusses). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122533 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 17:29:30 +0000 mediagirl 122533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: what's a new moms class? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122520 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 17:23:10 +0000 Andrea 122520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't - it seemed like it always interfered with nap time and I didn't want to mess up my LO's sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122430 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 15:21:26 +0000 chopsuey 122430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't. I've been thinking about taking LO to a class during the summer, but haven't decided yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122426 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 15:18:23 +0000 heffalump 122426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't, but I wish I did. I was having major migraine issues so it was too hard for me to commit to something or get out of the house. Hopefully as soon as I recover and can start getting out more and doing that kind of thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-doing-a-new-moms-class#post-122214 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 11:05:18 +0000 winniebee 122214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like a mommy and me group to meet other new moms? I'm debating....most of my friends have babies, but they will be 7-13 months by the time LO is born. My sister is due with her #3 a month after me, but obviously she's not a "new" mom. </p> <p>Are you doing a new mom's class? </p>
