That and some of her playmates are on opposing nap schedules. I'd like to get back to once a week after the holidays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-schedule-playdates-for-your-lo#post-28238 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 19:17:47 +0000 heffalump 28238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't now, I don't have a lot of mommy friends. Plus, she's too young to play anyway. It would really just be a mommy date. But since I'm a SAHM I'm hoping to do it in the future, since I'd love for her to get to socialize more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-schedule-playdates-for-your-lo#post-28121 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:47:11 +0000 Andrea 28121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not often since my daughter goes to day care, too. I think that will change once she starts asking me to call up her day care friends for play dates but I am guess we still have a bit of time before that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-schedule-playdates-for-your-lo#post-28119 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:45:14 +0000 Rubies 28119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I get together with four other mom and their babies (two coworkers and two former coworkers, all of us on mat leave) once a month and we rotate houses. </p> <p>I meet up with my friend (one of the coworkers) seperately maybe once every week or so.</p> <p>Other than that, it's just us two at home every day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-schedule-playdates-for-your-lo#post-28112 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:34:55 +0000 Cchoi4 28112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wondered how (pumping) moms did it? I find it hard to schedule anything (Gymboree classes, hair cut, eye appt, anything during the day that needs a "set time") since my window is usually two hours, but that includes a pumping session...so really it's like 1.5 hours. Within that window, packing LO up and heading over to anybody's house gives us just about 1 hour to play. Is that how things go? I would love to be able to do playdates...can anyone (pumping mothers) share how they do it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-schedule-playdates-for-your-lo#post-28007 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:54:55 +0000 Rosie Girl 28007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes we do! Normally about once a week we will get together with my girlfriend that is also a SAHM. We are also starting a mom's club, so we will be getting together with other moms and kids about 2x a month. </p> <p>@sandsandmore: My friend had her twins at 27 weeks, so we only go to each others' houses! I am very germ crazy anyways, so she is comfortable with us coming over :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-schedule-playdates-for-your-lo#post-27978 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:26:28 +0000 sandsandmore 27978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Because DS was a micropreemie, we schedule playdates with other micropreemies. We have to deal with adjusted age issues vs chronological age issues, so having him play with other babies at the same adjusted age is helpful. Also, parents of micropreemies tend to be understanding with our fears of germs and exposure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-schedule-playdates-for-your-lo#post-27973 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:20:14 +0000 mrbee 27973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used to do a lot, but daycare is kind of like a giant playdate... so lately we haven't been doing so many.</p> <p>Maybe every few weekends though, we'll meet up with one of Charlie's non-daycare friends. He usually loves it!</p> <p>Do you schedule playdates for your LO? How often does your LO go on a playdate? </p>
