Mothering has a place- look in "finding your tribe," then go to the tribal areas, find your region of the usa/world, and ask away. You may even find announcements for play groups.
Good luck!

AP Play Groups
Hi! Do any of you know of a way to find local AP Mom/Playgroups?! I'm tired of going to Gymboree and not having a SINGLE person to relate to. I would love to meet other mamas at least a little similar! Ya know?

Is there a website or something?

I know what you mean! I love My Gym, but ap moms? Ha!

I always assume that every new mom I meet is ap and then I get disappointed when I find out they're not... To me it's like "how can you *not* want to be close to your child, give them the best, cuddle & carry them, sleep cozy with them, etc."?
Here are three of my favorite ways to connect with other AP moms...hope it helps!
There's a database-based Yahoo group to connect AP moms all over the country. It's not a group that you post to, but rather one that is a large database full of other ap moms who've imput their information. You can contact them via email. Here's the link: AP Moms Connect
There's also a great listing of playgroups, some ap, on Matching Moms. You can meet individuals (it sorts other moms by age of child, distance from you, etc.) or playdates. It's a great free service and pretty active, too. Here's a link: matchingmoms.org
Last but not least, we South Florida moms are lucky to have a new and active group! If you live in South Florida, check it out! Here's a link:AP South Florida group

I looked on the tribal areas forum. I'm not saying that I only want to hang out with people that are exactly like me and only do the same things :LOL but those ladies were not very open minded.
I have found that even if I only have met a few AP moms in my area (who are great btw!!!

) that their positive influence on my life is worth having less 'mommy friends' and going to less playdates. I would definitely check out the tribal areas forum and see if there are some mamas in your area! I'm really glad I did

Good luck finding a playgroup for you and your dc!
