My family and I just moved here. 20wks pregnant, and don't know anything about the area. My husband is working out in the oil fields, 20days gone 10days home. We don't know anybody in the state. All of our family and friends live in Florida, therefore, I have little to no support. Don't get me wrong, my husband is a great man and does everything he can to care for us. But there's only so much he can do 5 hours away. I am a stay at home mom to my 4y/o daughter. She's too young to start school here so I have no means of making mommy friend connections.
Here I am on the bump, (haha seems so silly) looking to find some mommy friends
Re: New to ND with no friends :(
Hello, My name is Teri I am 24 weeks pregnant and my husband and I live in the heart of the oilfield around Williston area. If you live in the general area I would love to talk sometime. That would be tough being so far away from family and friends. Hope things get better for you.
I am 16weeks along and in the Dickinson area. I already have 2 little ones- oldest is 7 and youngest is 2.
What part of Fl are you from? I am from the Fort Walton Beach area and now live in Williston, ND. I am not preggers yet but am TTC. I think I actually may be now which is awesome. I want to wait til Christmas Day to take the test. This way my new baby would be like a super special Present.
I work at WSC (the college) and my husband is at Napa here in Williston. How is your baby doing? I hope s/he is doing well.
If you are still looking for a friend in the area we will be here for a while.
So sorry. I never received a notification that anybody replied. I live in Jamestown. Congratulations on your pregnancy. It's definitely an adventure!

My husband got out of the Navy June. That's why he was eager to take this job. The pay is great and so are the benefits. The few natives I have talked to (and unsuccessfully attempted to make friends with) have all said how hard it is to make friends around here because everybody knows everybody and they don't step out of their comfort zones and make any attempt to meet new people. It sucks, it's really hard.
Thank you for the welcome. We really do like the Jamestown area. It reminds us of our hometown. Only, no woods and it's really friggin cold! haha
