January 2012 Moms

Okay I'm done wondering....

Do any of you ladies know eachother IRL? It seems like some of you are already close and I was just curious. I'm completely jealous! I want a January bump friend! I feel like I'm in kindergarten trying to make friends for the first time and I don't know how to approach the situation. LOL! I think you are all great and supportive, but I don't really know any of you at all. TIA for your answers so I can quit wondering.

  • We had a gtg in Little Rock so I guess that technically counts?! Where do you live, OP?
  • I don't know anyone on this board IRL but I do know someone on the feb board. she's my co-blogger and we're really excited that we happened to be due only a couple weeks apart! (sorry, that probably didn't help)

    I totally feel like I'm the awkward girl in junior high though... but I do feel more comfortable on this board than any other I've ever visited.

  • I wish I knew you ladies IRL but no such luck-- I was always wondering this also-- good post!

    I'm in Knoxville, TN. I've looked on posts a while back about where everyone is from and no one seems to be in this area. Crying

  • I don't know anyone on this board IRL ...yet! It seems that erineileen317 and I live in the same general area and have possibly signed up for the same birthing class starting in September. So I may get to meet her then. I'm definitely signed up for the class and the last I heard she was planning on signing up also, just don't know yet if she actualy did or not. I hope so, it would be cool to meet a fellow bumpie!

  • I don't know anyone IRL on here, but from what I've read there are many from the same state as me.
  • Don't know anyone on this board IRL but am looking forward to possible meeting some of the other Edmonton moms in the future. Especially Lanasmommy. I believe I may have seen her before, but the base is a big area!

  • My BFF is the one that actually got me started on these boards. I am due the 26th and she is due the 15th (I think...if she sees this she can correct me). We've already said our babies are going to be best friends or have an arranged marriage.

     It has been AMAZING having her pregnant the same time I am, plus this is her second baby, so to me she is a pro. My own personal baby guru!! I would probably go crazy if I didn't have her to text with all my questions.

  • I don't know anyone IRL, but I do know there are several ladies in the DFW area. It would be cool to do a GTG!

  • Good question! 

    I don't know anyone IRL.  I've met 2Become1 at a local get together, but really don't "know" anyone.

  • Raven and I have met at the Georgia Bump GTG Smile She is just as cool IRL as she is on here Wink
  • I am friends with a couple on FB as well as here but haven't met any Jan Moms IRL.  I have gone to GTGs with ladies from the boards with my DD and we stay close on FB since GTGs are hard when everyone has to drive a minimum of 2  hrs each!

  • I don't know anyone here IRL and have felt the same way as you. I am very active on the American Pregnancy Association forums and have met a few ladies from there and even had one come to my baby shower when I was pregnant with DD.
    Rachel, mama to Ava (6), Olivia (4), Nora (2), and baby#4 on the way.

    I am near Atlanta but I drive all over GA and TN Stick out tongue (My DDS's father lives in TN and they visit him every other weekend)

  • I don't know anyone here IRL either though I am very good friends with ladies I met on my local board. I wouldn't mind a gtg either but I'm in So Fla, I don't think anyone else is nearby.

  • I'm now friends with 2 bumpies on FB.

    One just randomly because we both seemed to get along well (and turns out, we're a lot alike!).

    The other, we realized we went to the same college, and have several of the same friends, so we FB'd each other.  When she announced the name of her little girl, I was like, "I know someone with that name!"  And duh... it's the same person.

    Haven't actually met these peeps IRL, though.  Tried to contact a few VA bumpies, but no bite.  I'd love to meet up with others!  We did a Nestie GTG when I lived in GA & that was cool, but several years ago.

    do you ever go to the Los Angeles board? I have once or twice but not much.

    Anyone else out there in the socal area??? it'd be fun to do a gtg sometime. :)

    ETA I just realized that they have an OC board, so probably not..

  • A good friend of mine is due in February, but she's not on the Bump.  It is nice to have someone irl  that is going through the same thing.  I haven't noticed anyone on here from the DFW area, but then again I haven't really looked.
