Chicago Roll Call!

[rachieface]

Hi ladies! 

I know there have to be a number of Chicago mamas out there, and we would like to meet you!  Several of us MDC moms meet once a week or so for a playdate, and it is so much fun.  We are always open to adding more people to our little group, though, so if you are in Chicago, post on this thread.  It would also be interesting to see how many MDC'ers are in the area.  So far, the women I've met from Mothering live on the north side, but we are friendly to south siders and suburbanites too. ;)

Anyway, if you have questions about our little playgroup, PM me or tracymom1 for more info.  We just want moms who might be looking for like-minded parent friends to know that we're out here!

Lovely!  I will PM you.  I'm a South Loop mother-to-be and would be delighted to get to know some others in Chicago.

Hi Rach! Thanks for starting a roll call. I know there must be a lot of other Chicago mamas out there... where are you??!!

Maybe everyone is in hiding until we thaw out!

[DoulaSam]

I'm a doula in Chicago-land, but no children here. It's great you all are getting together though.

[skfmama]

You know about me...would love to hang out with you all again when we're back in town in August-ish :)

We live in the southwest suburbs of Chicago and would love to know if there are fellow moms in the area.  We are in Joliet but Plainfield, Romeoville, Naperville, Bolingbrook and Channahon are all close to us!

I'm in the western 'burbs (Naperville-Aurora border).  :D

[lucifugous]

We're on the far north side (close to Loyola) and love to hang out in the city. We sometimes go out to the SW burbs to visit family, so might be open to a meetup down that way, but we rely on public transit so that can be limiting or time consuming for some places.

We're likewise pure public transit people....

North Side and loving it!

Hello,

I'm new to this forum....I'm having a baby in about six weeks and am far North Side (by Loyola) also....It would be nice to get to know some like-minded mothers in the area.  Thanks,

[amurrayrubin]

Hello! I'm out in Plainfield/Joliet

[aphel]

Woot!

Look at all of us!

[honeybunmom]

I'm in the City with two great kids and another on the way, but WOH, so, never quite able to make the meet-ups for the mommy groups.

[mommy2naomi]

I'm in Ravenswood, I have two kiddos.

[kltroy]

I'm in U Village, but I work full time.  Any of you moms have CPS-age kids yet?  My son will be in kindergarten this fall, but we're still at a loss for what to do RE: after school care. *sigh*

Hi Ladies!

I'm somewhat new around here - I tend to lurk A LOT though. I'm expecting my first little babe in a few weeks and I am most definitely interested in meeting up with other local, like-minded mamas!

[cupcait]

Whoops, totally forgot to mention that I'm located in Avondale/Logan Square!

I live in Aurora, but close to the Naperville/Warrenville boarder.  I would love to meet up.  I NEED some more mommies in my life!  None of my friends are mommies.

I'm in Logan Square as well :)
