Or have a Girls Night Out?
I have a handful of local friends both mom and non-mom friends, but it's SO hard to get together. Between differing schedules, wanting to spend my non-work time with DS/DH and seeing gparents... The last two times I saw GFs were at a bridal shower (took ds because her mom wanted me to bring him) and a bday party (for her DD)!
I talk to them regularly, but I miss just laughing and hanging out with them!!!! Need to be more diligent about this.

Lately it's getting to the point where I see a friend maybe once a month. And that's including ALL my friends! So I really only see each friend a couple times a year

It does take effort. I see friends at least once a week, but don't do many night's out.
What are nomnom friends?

Only get together w/ a group maybe once every 3 months. But those girls I see at church almost every week. With one of my closest friend I see her at least once a month; much easier to schedule with just 1 other person!
I have a few close friends from my last job but they all live so far and all have kids/are pregnant too so I don't know when I'll see them next!

I see one of my bff's a few times/week but that's because she lives up the street and our LOs are in daycare together so they play a lot. The rest of them, probably every 2-3 months

I don't really have any local friends, so whenever we end up visiting each other. The last time was last year!!

Pretty frequently, but it's for playgroup or shopping/outing with the kids. I don't think I've had a GNO since I've had Sadie!!

Most of my GFs (other than my sister) are now my mom friends. So one of them I see twice a week (we walk together with the kids once and we have Bible study together once) and the other one that I consider a "friend" I see 3 times a week- all at child/playdate type activities!
I don't remember the last time I hung out with JUST friends...no kids. It was probably before my son was born. Soooo at least a year and a half?

I see my best friend about twice a month. She lives 10 min away, but it's definitely gotten harder to get together since LO was born. I see my other friends maybe once every 2-3 months?

My best friend is due with her 2nd LO in a few months. This thread has convinced me that we need to get the dads to watch the kiddos and she and I need a girls day before her new baby gets here! Lunch, pedis, no kids! I'm going to make it happen!

In my close circle, 3/5 of us are pregnant which means we haven't been socializing as much lately. Before that, though, we'd hang out every other weekend or so. It's almost never girls only though because the husbands are all BFFs too.

I meet other SAHMs all week long for coffee and play dates. Nights out are more of a monthly thing.

I see one of them at least once every two weeks. With a few others, about once a month. And I see the ones who are farther away about once every three months.

I don't have many friends close by (or really...many at all...). But the ones close by I see usually once a week or so (or at least talk every week). My best friend is in Australia though...so we don't see each other often at all.

I used to see BFF about 3 times a week, now about once a week and other 2 close friends about once a for night. I get out the house with friends at least once a week (even if for a half hour coffee). If go insane if I didn't.

Never 
Whenever we go home for a visit, we all hang out, someone throws a party, and we have at least one movie night. Last time we visited, it coincided with a wedding I was in, plus LO's church blessing and family party. So although I got to hang with all my childhood friends, I couldn't meet up with my college friends

I don't have a group of GFs, but my main female friend I see about once a month. I'd like it to be more regularly but work, health, baby and life in general get in the way too often
