Making Mom Friends

When you become a mother your whole world changes. In fact from the beginning of your pregnancy or start of the adoption process is when it starts. Suddenly every aspect of your life has changed, you care less about yourself and more about this tiny little person that will soon enter your life. During the process your friendships will change drastically. When that tiny little bundle of joy does make its arrival your life is even more devoted to caring for them. So lets face it, we can tend to rarely leave the house. So with your life so different and the sheer fact that your schedule kinda revolves around baby how do you make friends?

For me there were two places that I found to really make Mom friends! The first place is...

When I was pregnant with my second I found a website called baby center. They have a community that has groups that are for people due in the same month as you. So I joined, from there a Facebook group was created and I joined there as well and have been able to form some lasting friendships with people around the country. You have to be careful when doing this but they have actual mom out there who are not just some creepers trolling behind a computer. Look on baby center or search Facebook for local mom groups that have meet ups.

The second place I have found that I have meet the majority of my mom friend is...

Church!! Its such a great place to meet friends. When I first decided to start going to church I had just had my first baby and really had no friends. We started attending church regularly and would get to service early to have some fellowship time. I quickly meet a good group of women and started building friendships with them. We meet up outside of church and have playdates, we text throughout the week and encourage one another. I can't imagine life with out my mom friends I meet through church!
