VA Beach Moms 2 Be

LovinMyBump23

Hi! This is my first time experiencing all the joys of pregnancy and I would love to surround myself with women who are going through the same things! Im looking for pregnant moms that are due in the fall or local mom groups here in the Hampton Roads area! Any suggestions?

Checking your local bump board would be a good place to start I'd think and then maybe Facebook

Welcome! Since you're new, there's a lot to navigate here on the bump. Here's a link to the aforementioned local board for Virginia...

Feel free to hang around here, there's lots of support! Just be sure to check out the first couple threads, especially the one that says "read this first"... lots of good info there.

Hi @Knottie8984029 - I'm in VB too. Well, Chesapeake now, but grew up in VB and still consider Chesapeake the same thing.

1. Change your user name to something personal. #nevertrustaknottie
2. Get yourself a profile pic so we can better remember who you are. 
3. You can check out your local board, but if it's anything like mine, it's as dead as a doornail. 
4. Jump in here! We're all due in October, so we'll have plenty in common. Read the announcement thread at the top of the board (the one that says "PLEASE READ THIS FIRST"). It'll help you better navigate this board and avoid pissing people off.

Welcome!

Hi @Knottie8984029!  Yes, the Virginia board is dead, dead, dead.  There are a few of us from the Richmond area, but I go down to Norfolk often as my family lives there.  You may want to try looking up some meetup or facebook groups (I haven't had the best luck personally with these, but I keep looking).
