Local, no. My friends are mostly still single. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138779 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 16:57:48 +0000 Kimberlybee 2138779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started our family later than my friends so most of my friends have 3-4 kids and their kids are much older than my toddler. I am lucky to have cousins who have kids that are DD's age group so right now my cousins are my closest mommy friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138776 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 16:55:11 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 2138776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of my friends are moms so yes! I'm still in touch with my mom group from our old city and all the new people I've met are moms as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138707 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 16:13:04 +0000 Mrs. Pickles 2138707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>not really and I'm the first one to have kiddos (even though I'm on my second) </p> <p>sooo .. anyone want to hang out? lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138277 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 12:46:06 +0000 NovBaby1112 2138277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really, just a few! It's hard bc I work FT so no time to meet any during day, and none of my friends are having kids yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138240 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 12:23:04 +0000 Mrs. J 2138240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really. Through HB and FB, yes, but my friends just don't have kids yet or aren't married yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138172 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 11:45:35 +0000 miramira 2138172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One very close one who lives in another country (we were roommates in college), a couple good ones (although one of them keeps disappearing off the radar) and a couple acquaintances. I thought I'd spend my maternity leave going to tons of groups and making new friends but it's more hassle &amp; stress than I thought it would be! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138137 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 11:22:29 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2138137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I'm lucky. But not a lot of time to hang out with them. The time that works best for me to hang out with them is the time their husbands are coming home from work and so they're starting dinner/family time for the day. I do a Bible Study every Monday and the group is all moms and they bring their kids, so that's at least one fun "social" thing a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138134 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 11:19:49 +0000 CakeLady 2138134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of my friends are also new moms - many of them were my friends before and we all happened to have babies around the same time. I've also connected with some friends of friends because they also have babies. I feel pretty lucky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138125 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 11:15:32 +0000 Synchronicity 2138125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't have kids yet, but this is something that I think will suck for us. We are fairly young and for most of our friends, kids aren't even on the radar yet. I worry that it will be a little isolating, but hopefully we will make some new mom and dad friends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138106 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 11:08:12 +0000 petunia354 2138106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Except for sister, nope. That's why I value my HB friends so much! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138052 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:49:19 +0000 snowjewelz 2138052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh HB and FB, yes, haha :grin: </p> <p>IRL, prob half &amp; half? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138042 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:46:12 +0000 rattles 2138042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, finally! Most of my friends still haven't had kids, and I struggled to build a community once I decided to become a sahm. Luckily, I found an awesome moms group after our most recent move, and it's been awesome to build friendships out of that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138040 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:45:54 +0000 Anagram 2138040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a good amount- my online group that I "talk to" every day and my in-town mom friends that I don't see as often as I like since I work full time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138038 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:45:17 +0000 whenoceansrise 2138038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have several from church who I'm very close with! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138029 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:42:37 +0000 Mamaof2 2138029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most have kids - only 2 don't and never plan to have them </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2138012 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:33:39 +0000 sunny 2138012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a few that I see on a monthly basis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137967 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:17:18 +0000 matador84 2137967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Almost all my friends have kids, but my two best friends don't (well one is pregnant right now). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137963 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 10:16:27 +0000 catlady 2137963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, and it makes me sort of sad. I don't have many friends around here to begin with (my closest friends are all from college but over the years, many have moved away) and those that are here have no kids. Makes it hard to get together. It's weird too, we're all in our 30s! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137873 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:45:37 +0000 birdofafeather 2137873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep. friends from HS (who live farther away), friends from my old community and a few new friends in our new town. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137865 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:40:11 +0000 Reese 2137865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm the first of my close circle to be pregnant so it's a challenge right now (pregnant). My cousin is pregnant and I know a few people that have kids but nobody that I talk to on a regular basis about mom stuff.. if that makes sense. Then again, I am still pregnant so maybe that will change when LO is born and I have 57349853 questions. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137850 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:31:37 +0000 mrskc 2137850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a few mom friends. I made a couple new ones recently and have been getting together with them every week for play dates. I have one that I'm pretty close with and we text a lot through out the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137832 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:24:43 +0000 Mrs. Train 2137832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, most of the people I hang out with have kids now. I think my three babies kinda of scared off some of my non mom friends when they were really young. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137828 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:22:49 +0000 loveisstrange 2137828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I actually prefer it that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137826 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:22:21 +0000 Truth Bombs 2137826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have three awesome out of state mom friends that I talk to constantly and help me keep my sanity.</p> <p>I have four local mom friends who are amazing. All of our kids go to day care together and we all jump in to help each other as much as we can. We have been so lucky to have found each other through day care.</p> <p>And then I have lots of other mom friends but no one else as close as those two groups. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137814 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:18:15 +0000 Andrea 2137814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All my friends have kids! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137782 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 09:03:39 +0000 coopsmama 2137782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A few, but not as many as I'd like. One of my good mom friends moved away recently. I'm going to search out a few more. It's just tough to find women to click with that are around my age and have kids! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137750 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 08:49:13 +0000 Mae 2137750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>almost all of my friends have kids now. it's awesome :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-lot-of-mom-friends#post-2137747 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 08:48:28 +0000 MrsKoala 2137747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of my friends are moms or soon-to-be moms. </p>
