Mom's Groups

So I have been checking out mom's groups.  It may be early since my baby can't "play" with other kids...but I am trying to lay some ground work and make friends myself so that I can find friends for him to play with when the time is right.  So basically if I hear of one I go.  So far I have 2 groups.

The first group meets every Wednesday from noon-2pm.  I love this group because it is perfect for me right now.  "Technically" it is a breastfeeding support group where we are suppose to support everyone in their breastfeeding struggles and be able to ask questions or share what has worked for us.  What really happens is that we sit in a circle, put our babies on blankets in front of us, shake rattles at them, and chat.  Perfect...just what I need.  I love it.  There is one lady in the group who I kind of 'clicked' with.

It is hard making friends as adults!

So far I have not done anything with anyone outside of the noon-2 on Wednesdays.

The second group is a little more 'fly by the seat of our pants' group.  We had a mom's only breakfast together on Saturday and basically after that...one of us it suppose to make suggestions of activities and it is more loose.  However, all their children are way older...in school already...there were 3 women who had 11 month olds...but they also had older children.  So, we will see what comes of that.

Now, I want to go back to where I said 'making friends as adults is hard'.  Why?????
