Mommy Me Group in the NW Area or the Pearl

There's a great one called MOMS Club (stands for moms offering moms support)of Portland West Hills. Here's their website. Hope it helps. http://www.geocities.com/portlandwesthillsmoms/
If the link doesn't work for some reason, you can find off the main website, www.momsclub.org
It's a great group to be a part of for a first time mom and/or one who is new to the area.

I met my Mom's group through St. Vincent's New Mom Group. About a dozen of us were put together and have babies born within January, February and March of 2007. I'd recommend going to a few of their meetings and getting your name on the list to join a group. It has been wonderful and we get together for all the holidays and other events too. My recommendation is to find a group with babies around the same age as your daughter. It is fun to compare progress with other mom's too. Good Luck!

Try MOMS Club! Go to www.momsclub.org to find a chapter in your area.

Willamette Hospital in Oregon City used to offer a wonderful mother-baby group/class when my boy was a baby some 11 years ago. It was a well-lead class, and they also offered plenty of resource materials for new moms. It is a little(!) out of the way, but I found it was more than worth the drive; I drove from the Multnomah Village area in SW.

There are a few on Meetup.com. Here are some links:

If you are into Babywearing, or want to learn more about it, there are also some local groups for that: http://nwbabywearers.org/ - that lists all the local groups.

I used to live in the Pearl when I was pregnant, and also delivered at Good Sam. I love that area! I'm actually headed down there today to hang out. I have a 1 year old, who loves other babies. Email me if you feel like getting out of the house this afternoon!
Peace,

Hi S. D!

You can come and join our group Portland West Hills Moms Club. I sent you a private message with more details. We hope to meet you soon!

You can also visit our main site www.momsclub.org where you can find us under Oregeon/Portland West Hills.

I think just about every public library offers a free weekly mommy & baby group. Check with yours.

There is a group that meets at the Green Frog Toy shop every Monday at 10:30am

Also Friendly House in the NW area has a group Tues/Thursdays, although both of these are more for older kids....
figure it is good reference for the future.

You may want to look for Mom's groups on http://www.meetup.com There are many mom's groups.

Also MOM'S Club International has groups all over. http://www.momsclub.org/welcome.html
