    Hi, I'm new to the Bay Area. I have a 5 month old son and we moved to Orinda for my husband's job. I'm a stay at home mom and would love to make some new friends, take the kiddos for walks, etc. If you know of any groups or would like to get together please let me know!

    http://www.lamorindamoms.org/ has playgroups by age, family/social events, etc.

    Hello! I would love to meet up sometime for a walk! I'm have a 7.5 month old daughter and a pretty flexible schedule. Let me know if you ever want to walk around the reservoir or something!

RE: Accepting the SAHM phase

Hi, Being a SAHM at times does feel a bit isolating. I will tell you that once your kids start kindergarten and you see the same families at school and at after school activities around town, you feel a bit more connected. Preschool friends are nice but often they come from all around town and outside of Lamorinda even, and the duration of those ''friendships'' are limited to the preschool years. When friends go their separate ways to kindergarten, they meet new friends who live within blocks of your home. What we do at home as mothers is important and hard work, I hope you find a balance. I was in a mom's group playgroup through Lamorinda Moms Club and that was really fun for me and for the kids too. I saw it as a way to connect with other very local moms. Some were working part-time and if I remember correctly, they may have even had a working moms playgroup. Check out the website. You'd be connected with other moms with kids your kids' ages, and that is nice for many reasons. They have fun playing weekly and you can talk shop -- the trials and successes of being a SAHM.
