Looking for moms to be in my city

Hey ladies,

I am a 1st time expecting mom (in my 11th week right now) Just moved to Seattle & desperately looking to hang out with mommies to be & make some great friends so that we can support each other through this wonderful phase of our life. I don't really know how & where to get started & the worst feeling is to end up having a lonely pregnancy. And the mood swings are killing me now..

So anyone out there, gimme a shout. I would be super glad to connect with you.

    Hey there, I totally understand feeling alone in a new city and all the new changes. I live in the Renton area, so not too far from Seattle. You should check out meetup.com. I currently belong to this group https://www.meetup.com/Renton-Moms-to-Be-Ages-30-and-Up/. This is a good way to meet other first time mothers too. Feel free to hit me up if you'd like!

    Welcome!

    Hey Dhaueisen, thanks a ton for your response! The birth month board is only until the end of this year on this website & I am due in Feb 2014. I don't see the calendar for next year yet :( That's the first thing I was looking on to connect with people. 

    You are not too far along. I wish you all the best :)

    Sending you a big hug :)

    Heyy jrtmom, great to hear from you. I am in Queen Anne, where exactly are you located?

    I am currently looking at the PEP website & it looks like a fantastic option. Also do let me know about the other option where I can meet other FTMs too, when & where do you guys meet up & how can I be updated about it or how do I join the group! 

    Thanks a ton for your suggestions & wish you all the best, hope you're not getting too jittery :)

     

    Hugs :)

    Hey Divya! I just got on here in hopes to find some commoradory as well! I'm a first time mom due in feb 2014 also! I live in Edmonds and work in Seattle, so I can meet anywhere around here. I'd love to meet up and look into finding a group to become friends with as well! I feel like im becoming a hermit, with no friends that are pregnant and no family around, i need to get out. Please feel free to email me at laurabuck67@hotmail.com.
    Cheers!

    Hi!

    I'm also expecting my first (10w5d today), and live in north Seattle. I've lived here my whole life so I know the city pretty well. Some friends have just had babies, but I don't know any that are currently pregnant. I work at a school and have the summer off and have been finding myself at a loss of what to do, given morning sickness and exhaustion, etc. Anyhow, would love to meet sometime!

    Hey Divya!

    I'm an expecting Mom in Queen Anne.  Due date is November 30th.  Would love to meet up.  Maybe go for a slow stroll around the crown sometime?

    My email is princesswoowoo@gmail.com.  We had a group of QA expecting Moms that have gotten together once or twice to walk around the crown but with the summer schedules, it's been a while since we all got together.  Will add you to that list.

    All the best,

    Karin

    There is a Secret Seattle Bumpies Facebook Group--and there is a North Bumpies and South Bumpies Facebook group. A lot of the mothers from this board went to that group on Facebook.

    Hi Divya, 

    My name is Tara and I am 10 weeks.  From the looks of it, I will be due in February as well because I am having twins :)  I don't know many people in the Seattle either and would love to connect.  I live in Redmond, but will be starting work outside of Ballard next month.  My email is travail@gmail.com. 
    BTW, totally understand the mood swings :) I am more tired than anything lately though.

    Hey Tara,
    Great to hear from you, will connect with you real soon. Have my NT scan lined up for today & I am soooo nervous!!! 
  • Options
    Good Luck!  I really don't think the nerves are ever going to go away.  I can't wait till my 12 week check up and so nervous! 
  • Options
    Tara, congrats on the twins!

    Divya, I had my NT scan yesterday too. How did yours go? I'm apparently a day ahead of schedule, due 2/18 instead of 2/19 now. (:

    I'm attaching an ultrasound pic from yesterday and a 12w1d bump pic I just took this morning. Actually have a teeny bump now, it's exciting! :D

    Maybe it would be quicker for me to just email people? Hmm.

    We are having a Sacred Pregnancy circle coming up on September 16th. (it's free). It's a beautiful way to bond with other pregnant mamas, while nurturing yourself as well. 

    Open to the public, but please RSVP: https://www.facebook.com/events/574783535900997/

    Hi Divya,

    Were you able to find any meetup groups or moms to-be clubs in Seattle? I just moved to First Hill from San Francisco and I'm due in March. I'd love to belong to a group and meet some locals. My email is sscollins@dons.usfca.edu.

    Thanks!

It would be lovely to meet other pregnant ladies in Seattle. Next we will be meeting for mani/pedi and a pre-natal yoga class!

    I live in Magnolia and I recently found out that I am pregnant. I've been searching for some kind of group or way to connect with other pregnant women.

    Ooh, I'm jealous of you Seattle girls and your meetups. Wish there were more people on this board living north of the city-- I live all the way up in sad and lonely Mount Vernon. It sucks being in a brand new state (just moved from AZ) and having the start from scratch. Expecting my first with all of my friends and family living all the way across the country is starting to feel a little lonely, dammit.  

    If there are any north-of-Seattle moms-to-be around... hit me up! :)
