Friends of Friends... when Friends of Friends found out we had a kid they started communicating with us more. It felt weird to kind of bypass our mutual friends (that don't have kids yet) but it turned out really well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/howwhere-did-you-meet-your-parent-friends#post-1545190 Fri, 04 Apr 2014 04:55:00 +0000 SAHM0811 1545190@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Besides family, we usually meet parent friends through preschool/school, or they were friends from our childhood/college who are parents now too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/howwhere-did-you-meet-your-parent-friends#post-1545189 Fri, 04 Apr 2014 04:54:22 +0000 lamariniere 1545189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Parenting social groups. There is a huge mommy expat community here. To a lesser extent, playgrounds and parents from daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/howwhere-did-you-meet-your-parent-friends#post-1545188 Fri, 04 Apr 2014 04:49:44 +0000 illumina 1545188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Breastfeeding support group and then friends of friends I met there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/howwhere-did-you-meet-your-parent-friends#post-1545054 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 23:38:07 +0000 sandy 1545054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So many different places - my birthing class, mom meetup group, music program, and parent-tot swim time at the local pool. I've met other moms at story time but I just see them there and don't plan play dates with them or get together outside of story time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/howwhere-did-you-meet-your-parent-friends#post-1545027 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 22:59:46 +0000 matador84 1545027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>College friends, coworkers </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/howwhere-did-you-meet-your-parent-friends#post-1545000 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 22:39:29 +0000 Freckles 1545000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The playground!

We all had little boys in 2013 :) I also joined a month group on weddingbee and we're a pretty tight-knit group now. I go to mothers group on Mondays but there's not any of us and I wouldn't say we're all that close. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/howwhere-did-you-meet-your-parent-friends#post-1544598 Thu, 03 Apr 2014 20:33:28 +0000 MrsF 1544598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One at a newborn breastfeeding support group at the hospital where I delivered.

We first met at our neighborhood block party though. Our other closest parent friends their child went to daycare with Charlie and Olive.</p> <p>Pretty much most of our parent friends we've met through daycare! There are people we chat with at the playground because we see them all the time, but we haven't made any playdates yet.</p> <p>What about you? </p>
