I need to make friends. We moved late in my pregnancy and I am not working so its getting kind of lonely. Does anyone have advice on how to make new mommy friends, where do we hang out? should I just run up to women with babies and hope we hit it off? (see isolation has made me awkward) Anyway any suggestions would be very helpful... sorry for how pathetic this is
Re: this is dorky but...
I used meetup.com when I moved to where I live now. I didn't have a kid yet so I looked for a group that had to do with my interests but I have found a moms group on there in my area.
Someone else also told me to check out the local library and go to some of the kid related activities with LO.

Join your local MOPS group. That is what I did when we moved from Az to Tx.

I also was very nervous and shy about making friends. But as my only peer to be married, let alone have kids, then to become a stay at home mom, I needed them.
I love my group of six moms and their adorable children. Sorry this is verbose! Good luck, I hope you find someone as wonderful!
