    Smile Looking for mother's groups on the sunny coast

    Hi, my name's cat, I'm 26 and I moved to the Caloundra, sunny coast last year. I don't know many people here on the coast and would love to meet some other mums or mums to be. I'm 22 weeks at the moment with my first.

    Is there a mother's group that meets somewhere on the sunny coast say on a weekly basis?

    I have no idea about ones that meet up on a regular basis, but I'm in Nambour if you ever wanted to catch up.

    I usually avoid mother's groups

    You can speak to your health nurse I suppose.

    I was never informed of any existing around here when I had my first child (which was only 2 years ago), so I've never bothered researching to be honest. I don't think they are as popular up here as they are down south for some reason.

    There's a new mum's course through Qld Health that goes for 6 weeks and mother's groups form from there. You get a brochure in the hospital from memory and I also got a brochure from the nurse at the chemist when I took DS to get weighed.

    thanks ladies, I'm going to book in my antenatal classes soon so I guess once I start attending them it will prob lead to it. I don't mind travelling to caboolture to attend one.

    Hi Cat, My name's Janine, i'm 24 and also moved to Caloundra last year and know absolutely no-one up the coast. I'm 28wks pg with my first, and would love to catch up with any other mums to be in the area. I'm fortunate enough to be in a situation which has allowed me to give up working already, so get SOOOOOOOOOOOO bored during the day!! Let me know if you want to chat!

    Mother's group

    Hi Chantelle, Renee, Janine & Stevie!

    I live at Aroona, which is basically part of Caloundra (near little mountain). Would you guys be interested in maybe building our own mother's group? We can meet somewhere nice in caloundra for coffee and chat. What do you all think?
