We were around other kids/babies within a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-take-your-newborn-around-other-babies#post-907060 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 21:19:19 +0000 googly-eyes 907060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't go but it had nothing to do with infection/not wanting to be around other babies! It was because the one I was thinking of going to met in the morning and I am not a morning person...no way I could get ready and out by then! ;) If you're interested and can go, go! The babies won't be interacting anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-take-your-newborn-around-other-babies#post-907048 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 21:02:17 +0000 Periwinkle 907048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We went to our first baby group at 3 weeks and it was great for me and good for him (I think!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-take-your-newborn-around-other-babies#post-907041 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 20:55:35 +0000 matador84 907041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I waited 8 weeks to go public places per our pediatrician...but there is no possible way I'll be able to do that with this one since I have to go back to work at least at 6 weeks out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-take-your-newborn-around-other-babies#post-907011 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 20:18:53 +0000 sslm 907011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I walked with other moms starting at 3 weeks and that was mostly bc I didn't feel ready to "exercise" until then. I would've done it sooner assuming the babies weren't sick!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-take-your-newborn-around-other-babies#post-907010 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 20:17:53 +0000 Pepper 907010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would totally do this if there was a group in our area! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-take-your-newborn-around-other-babies#post-907005 Thu, 04 Jul 2013 20:13:11 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 907005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mmmm instantly when we got home?
