Hi all,

Anyone in around Union county? I'm looking for some moms who do AP, EC(part time or occasional is great too), who babywear, who enjoy the outdoors and the arts, or any combination of the previous.

I'm a first time mom and I just moved back to NJ from Brooklyn. I'm the first of my group of close friends to have a baby. I'm the only mama I know that practices AP. Just looking for support maybe some play groups?

Any suggestions for where to find more people is really appreciated.

Well, for anyone who cares I have a "natural parents" meetup group!

A lot of it's in Hudson county but we have members from all over, annnnd once spring and summer come I'm going to get together a lot of outside stuff! I've got a 2 1/2 year old, and we are always looking for new friends

Who wants to meet up sometime next week? Feb 8th to the 13th? Is that possible for you ladies?

 

[mommariffic]

I'm down!

 

[Pixie26]

[Nazsmum]

How about we meet on Tuesday? The weather is supposed to be better on Monday and Tues. I'm having a difficult time thinking of where to meet. My brain isn't thinking too clearly as today I have to put a very dear friend to rest. This reply has taken me 15 mins.
We could meet for lunch? or later? I'm assuming indoors for most of you, is preferable with this weather.
Ideas:
Whole Foods Cafeteria, a barnes & nobles, a child friendly cafe?, a library?

 

[Nazsmum]

Sorry for your loss. Tues is fine. I'm not sure where to meet. But anywhere will be fine.

 

[Pixie26]

So sorry, HeliMom.
Whats central to all of us... Where are we? Westfield, Union... Where else?

 

[HeliMom]

I'm in Springfield.

 

[Nazsmum]

OK so Tue? Time? Place?

 

[HeliMom]

How about the Barnes & Nobles? on 22? They have a story time at 11 am? We could meet after? Either hanging out in the children's section or going over to the cafe area. (Based on how the LO's are doing?)

 

[Nazsmum]

I think that will work. I will be there.

 

[HeliMom]

Oki doki I'l be there tomorrow.

 

[Pixie26]

Im in- Id love to get out... The only caveat is myolder son. He had a low grade fever tonight and a sore throat, so Im not sure if we will get out or not. I'll let ya'll know in the am!
