I did a mom's meetup at a nearby cafe on the weekend. I was the only working mom among the group. I try to go to their weekend activities. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900985 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 10:45:19 +0000 cmomma17 900985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant @MrsJacks definitely beat me to it - no work flexibility for me! :( I also nurse on my lunch break currently. good ideas though! :)<br /> @photojane, I'm hoping it might just be due to the summer schedule. I'll check back in the fall when LO is old enough to attend their classes<br /> @merryc - aww that's lame! I wish you could take twins to all the classes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900499 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:30:33 +0000 twinmama 900499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sorry! I can't either even though I stay home, since I have two infants. Even the library requires 1:1 adult child ratio. I would love swim lessons for the kids, but for now we'll just have to throw them in the pool whenever we have access and extra hands :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900473 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:23:57 +0000 photojane 900473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: I'm also in VA, but presumably a different part. My local Little Gym has Saturday classes! Maybe you could email them? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900404 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 08:06:03 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 900404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: given her recent pumping posts, I think work flexibility is out the window :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900386 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 07:59:46 +0000 PinkElephant 900386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you work close enough to home that a lunchtime class might be an option? Or is your job flexible enough that you could work through lunch/eat at your desk once a week, and take LO to a morning class? Just trying to think of some other options for you... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900226 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 05:54:12 +0000 CibMomma 900226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cmomma17: sorry to hear that! My LO is 6.5 months and I feel like I keep finding more and more options for mommy and me as he gets older....just bc I'm more in the loop I guess.<br /> Consider starting a Meetup.com group, based on story time, stroller workouts, or something else. Check meetup.com too for existing groups for Saturday mornings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900221 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 05:39:40 +0000 cmomma17 900221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rrachael: you should! Good idea DH! :) hmmmm ... Maybe I will think about that .... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900195 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 02:51:12 +0000 rrachael 900195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same here! I was so excited because I found a working mom breastfeeding support group that met monthly on Saturdays ..... Then I went and was 1 of 2 moms! I was so bummed. DH says I should start my own storytime on weekends ... Haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-900188 Tue, 02 Jul 2013 02:24:25 +0000 Cherrybee 900188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Its like this in my area, too. People keep asking me if I'm going to go to x,y,z when my baby is here and it makes me sad because, no, I have to work. Sob. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899950 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:54:45 +0000 cmomma17 899950@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookworm: I call bs! I meant to go to story time on my maternity leave and never made it, boooo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899949 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:53:55 +0000 cmomma17 899949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBehr: we only have little gym and the baby class is only offered once at 1030 am on a Wednesday :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899938 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:47:12 +0000 mamimami 899938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know, it sucks. After a lot of looking I found some Gymboree classes at 545. I have to run out of the office and haul a$$ but we get there more often than not LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899934 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:43:29 +0000 Bookish 899934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the same problem :( I was so excited at the prospect of taking my LO to storytime at the library... and they are all during the work day. They said there was no demand for weekends or evenings, which I think is bs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899882 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:16:27 +0000 doodlepoodle 899882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh YES! I totally understand that! :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899878 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:12:32 +0000 T-Mom 899878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel your pain. You may have to look in neighboring towns. If its any consolation, it gets better as they get older. There are lots of after school activities for preschoolers and up, but then the issue gets to be finding time to get there after work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899875 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:11:32 +0000 MamaBehr 899875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not even kindermusic? Have you looked into a "My Gym" "Gymboree" or "Little Gym" classes? I was surprised at how many classes they offer, at least around me, including weekends and evenings. I do My Gym </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899871 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:07:57 +0000 cmomma17 899871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So depressing! I already miss him so much while I'm at work, I thought a class on the weekends would be a fun way to bond. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899868 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:06:38 +0000 78h2o 899868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, that sucks! The YMCA near me has parent-child swim classes on Sunday. Have you tried a Y? I don't think you have to be a member ( you just pay a little more). I hope you can find something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899866 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:04:55 +0000 Pink Champagne 899866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know!! It's like that in my area too. Apparently, mommies who have jobs don't need to do activities with their babies :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899863 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 20:03:36 +0000 MsMamaBear 899863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know. Mine are like that too. If you have a local parenting magazine, they may have a calender of stuff on the weekends too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/no-baby-classes-for-wohms#post-899855 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 19:57:03 +0000 cmomma17 899855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I excitedly searched for mommy and me type classes in my area today - music, swimming, gymnastics, anything! They are all in the morning on weekdays :( Even baby story time at the library is early on days I work! So sad. :( </p>
