Hellobee Boards

Have you looked into meetup.com? I've heard good things about it. Maybe you can take some of the classes at the hospital to meet some pregnant friends.

My neighborhood is very family friendly, that's one of the big reasons we moved here. There are a few families with young kids that get together every once in a while at the park or something like that. All of the mom's work but me though, so it's not a SAHM thing, but it's still nice.

I was hoping that I'd stay in touch with people in our hospital birthing classes, but none of us ever exchanged info. Now my LO is 3.5 months, so I've been getting more anxious to get out and meet people during the week, especially because only a couple of our friends have babies and they are not stay-at-home parents. We live in a townhouse community, but there are no younger families unfortunately.

I've joined a couple groups on meetup.com, but I've noticed most of the families have older babies - like a year or older. There's just such a big developmental difference right now that I'd prefer to meet some families that have children around the same age as my LO.

A couple weeks ago I started going to a baby yoga class and there are 5 other families that attend, so I'm hoping we'll stay in touch after class is over, especially since the class is meant for pre-crawling babies. This is the site I used to find the class in case you are interested in finding one near you: http://www.itsybitsyyoga.com/classes/find.html

If you are looking to meet other pregnant moms now, maybe try finding a prenatal yoga class near you?

I'm a member of a meetup.com moms group and there are some preggers girls there too, so you could try going to some of their events. Mine usually does a coffee meetup for moms and small babies that a few moms-to-be go to.

I've had luck with the mom groups on meetup.com and have lately taken to accosting the pregnant ladies I see on the street. I'll chat up anyone with a bump.
I've also met some other moms-to-be through prenatal yoga. I've been really putting effort into finding our LO (and myself) friends by being where other pregnant ladies will be. So far so good.

I'm in the same situation, except our whole town is only 400 people! It's hard when LO is very young since a lot of the moms groups are people with older kids. Our library has a music/story time for babies 0-23 months that LO loved, and I spotted a couple other babies his age, so we'll continue going and see if we can make any friends! I've accepted the fact that I will never have mom friends super close by, since our neighborhood is all older people who either have teenagers or kids in college.

Although I have some mommies at my church, they don't live very close to me so I'm totally on the lookout for nearby mommy friends, too. I joined a Mommy and Me class, and met a few ladies that way, but we haven't hung out outside of class or anything. I also joined a local meetup for moms, but haven't had a chance to attend a meetup yet.

Good luck! It can be so hard to meet other moms I totally feel for ya!
