Hey ladies,
Today was amazing, thanks for all your well-wishes. Everything went off without a problem, and if there were issues I didn't know about them. I'll post a couple pics that we have for now - one thing is that I didn't realize exactly how large I've gotten (my face seems huge to me) and the bewbs are practically not contained - I've never had cleavage in my life, so this was a surprise to me.

Aaaaaaand..... we're team.... PINK!!! I cannot believe how "off" I was, I was so certain I was having a boy.

[MrsKChicago]

Nelly I'm coming to see you! Hope you're in the office!

Yay! I finally met you

Jealous! We need more Chicago mamas!

 

[NellyLou]

I know! It's so completely random that I work with MissFrick's husband! She figured it out from this thread lol.

 

[MrsKChicago]

That really is so random. What are the odds? I've met some of my very best friends on forums, I wish there were more from here near me. It would be nice to get a head start on mom friends.

 

[NellyLou]

I know! I never expected to meet someone on here lol.

I met other moms with babies my daughter's age on facebook. There are quite a few local groups around here for moms based on neighbourhoods, so I definitely recommend trying to find some in your area, or create one. I waited way too long to meet other moms my first time. Get out of the house and meet other moms right away

 

[MrsKChicago]

I should really see what's available. It seems like it's almost harder in a big city because you don't have that close community, and we don't belong to a church or anything to meet moms that way. We do have a couple friends with young kids, but my SIL and brother and the only ones who live near us, and with nephew being a year and a half older, I think it'll be awhile before he and Teddy are really interested in each other. We're friends with another couple who just had a baby boy, but their house is harder to get to. I'll have to see what I can find.

It looks like I'll get to meet Bookity this weekend because I'll be traveling in her direction, but she's not local enough to see regularly

 

[NellyLou]

It's definitely not easy making new friends, but atleast most other new moms are looking for friends too! I only moved here a few years ago so really didn't know anyone when I had my daughter. That's great that you and Bookity are going to meet up

 

[NellyLou]

PS MissFrick, you should have seen the mad dash of people rushing to the kitchen for the leftover wedding cupcakes you and your dh brought in! I might have been the first one up there, but I did almost get trampled on my way back to my desk!
