I live in Naperville and have twin 7 week boys. Have been looking for a mom group as well. If interested in chatting, send me a pm I feel like I am in college again trying to meet new friends!
I'm around Naperville and haven't had a ton of success with Meetup either. If anyone is interested in some sort of playdate or outing, let me know, we should try to organize something! I have a 9 month old and a 22 month old.
I am up for it! I have taken the kids for a stroll on the river walk a few times due to the great winter we have been having, I hear next week will be a bit warmer. I have also gone to the mall in Aurora as well.
I haven't had much luck either, but I'd love if one existed. Their is a Naperville Moms Network, but I haven't looked around their website too much. It does look like their pics are of kids in the toddler age range.
Maybe we could start one on the meetup site?
Proud Mom to the ZooCrew - Jack 3 years old and Joey 21 months.
Excited and delighted to welcome the 3rd member of the ZooCrew in 2015! We can't wait to meet you Matthew Henry!
Oh, I had an idea while I was in the shower - does everyone use Facebook? Groups and Events are so easy to set up on there maybe that would be a great way to go. I'll set one up and if everyone would like to join I'll post a link and then we can figure out things. Yea!

I live in Naperville as well and have a 2 1/2 year old and a 8 week old. I would love to meet some moms and have playdates since I am staying home from work for awhile.
If this group gets up and running, can you let me know so I can pass the info along to my friend's friend? (Can you send me a pm on FB since I rarely get back to TB).
A new mom's group is starting at Bellies to Babies Studio in downtown Downers Grove. It will meet for 5 weeks on Thursdays from 9:30-11:30 starting in March. It will be a place for new moms to get together to discuss relationships, feeding, bonding with baby, birth stories, how to maintain your own identity since becoming a mom and many other topics. It is lead by myself, a doula and nurse, and my co-worker who is a doula and LLL leader in the area. If anyone is interested feel free to send me a message at samma_13@yahoo.com. Proceeds of the group go towards Chicago Volunteer Doulas which is a not for profit organization that provides doula and childbirth education services to lower income women in the Chicagoland area.
I just found this post! We moved to Aurora about a year ago and know very few people in the area. I requested an add to the FB group - would love to join in. Thanks!
