I would love to network and meet with attachment parenting moms who live in my area. Seems so hard. Whenever I go into a market (even Whole Foods) with my baby in a sling carrier, it seems I'm always the only one, and I feel so aware of it. All other babies are in transportable car seats or strollers.<br><br>
Anyway, I would love to meet and share ideas and knowledge.<br><br>
Thanks,<br>
Audrey

Try the local LLL groups. There are also some AP groups, but I can't think of any.

I'm in Culver City! Well...almost Culver City...Palms and Overland anyway. I recently went to Target with my little one in a sling and people stared at me...outright stared at me, like I was an alien or something.
