Anyone interested in joining a meetup group?

Hi ladies! First of all, congrats on your pregnancies. This is such a nerve wrecking/wonderful/intimidating time for us all!
I live in downtown Denver and am due with our first in March. I was thinking about starting a group on www.meetup.com for Denver Metro pregnant couples to occasionally get together and for moral support. My husband and I love meeting new people (don't worry, we're NOT swingers) and would really like to make some friends who are also going through their pregnancies. Hoping this could eventually lead to play dates and friends for our babies! We are both active people and can usually be found at Wash Park playing volleyball, playing kickball, bowling leagues, Rockies games or whatever else that is a more fun a social way of avoiding bars! Since our new (and exciting) lifestyle will unfortunately prevent us from doing some of our favorite things, we are looking for new activities with like minded friends to enjoy our first pregnancy to the fullest!
If you would be interested in joining, please let me know. I don't want to go through the hassle of starting the group if I don't have at least a few people who would want to join! I thought this might be a more fun, supportive, FREE OF TB SNARK way to meet new people

Re: Anyone interested in joining a meetup group?
And yep, we live 1 block north of Sloan's lake. We love it but will prob move further south once our lease is up next July... my H's job takes him further south and he didn't anticipate all the Denver traffic (we just moved here). But we both love outdoorsy/active stuff and are up for fun exploring-Denver type activities.
Hi @shaynetorres! I plan on setting up the meetup group in the next couple of weeks. I haven't personally come out to the social media world yet, so I'm afraid to start the group and have my friends find out I'm pregnant that way! In the meantime, I'd love to come up with some things we can do to get to know each other. Would love to include SOs so they can feel like they're part of this and have future dads to relate to! How about this: I'll list some potential dates that we could do something and then you girls let me know what works for you?
Weekdays in the evenings: 8/28, 8/29, 9/3, 9/8
or
Weekends (I work on Saturdays until 6pm): 8/30, 8/31 and the rest the weekends in September I'm gone.
Let me know what works for everyone!

And yes, we would love to meet the parents who now have their little bundles and give us some pointers!
@blueroad that's so funny we are going on the same day! We're going to the greenwood village office though. Bring your photos so I can see them!
We live in south Denver, in the DU area.
Please let me know if you would like to get together or if there are any other plans to meet up!
Best,
Ellyn
