Hi, will be glad to meet here people from Russia.

 

[Tatka]

I know it's kind of late to respond but I am Russian and used to live in Ukraine before moving to US.

My mother's name is Svetlana, and people often call her Lana.

 

[M_of_M]

Hm, yeah, a late reply from me too.

I used to live in Ukraine as well, but now live in Canada.

Another late reply

I am Ukrainian, but here in US I am "russian" by default

I am a "frist generation" immigrant and lived in CA for 13 years.

Anybody else?

 

[Inger]

I am Swedish living in Lithuania now and I really like it here

Glad to "meet" people from this corner of the world!

Hi Inger

 

[tcbymoscow]

Yes! I'm an American living in Moscow for 10+ years. Where are you?

 

[elizaveta]

Ooh! I'm a Russian-American who lives in Krasnoyarsk!

I didn't expect to see many Russian people on this board!

 

[tcbymoscow]

Anyone else currently living in Russia? We have a growing AP community here in Moscow, with frequent homeschooling get-togethers, plus a support group for breastfeeding moms http://mommymilk.meetup.com/22/ that grew from 3 moms to 28 moms in just one year -- Yeah! Originally, we were a bunch of expats looking for like-minded moms. Now, we're pleased to have quite a few English-speaking Russian moms joining us to enrich the group. The more the merrier!

Hi there,

I'm in Moscow too (hi Theresa!), with my 5 yo, 3yo and soon to be 17 mo. We've been here a year (my husband's job brought us here) and we'll be here another three or four. Finally starting to love it.

Does anyone know of any mothering like forums in Russian? I'm on materinstvo but it's pretty mainstream (although fairly all encompassing), I'd like to find a more NFL-natural birth oriented one, if it exists. As it is in my due date club on materinstvo I'm reluctant to mention homebirth just like I would be on babycenter and similar places.

Спасибо!
