Okay, I have a big time challenge right now. I am a SAHM and 26 weeks pregnant with a VERY active 3 year old. I have been finding great difficulty keeping him...

Thanks ladies. I'm hoping to join Stroller Strides after I have the baby - I was doing a boot camp when I became pregnant and planned to continue, but the early pregnancy didn't agree with working out.:( I'll have to look into playgrounds fun zone memberships. I also think I'm going to look into a gym with childcare that way he can play with other kids while I take walks on a treadmill....I'm sure things will work out now that I've gotten some great ideas.

Are there any mommy play date groups in your area on meet-up.com? Local church summer bible schools?

It cost money per month, but we pack lunches and I have something Monday through Friday for the kids to be involved in and meet kids, while I get to workout and get mommy talk. When you break it down its very reasonable... look into Stroller Strides - Fitness for Mom, fun for Baby! Or check with Kelly Simers Nielsen and she can email you some stuff. It's for moms, or/and pregnant moms and I love it. The moms do playdates, picnics, and we do group playdates. I honestly don't know how I was a sahm before!!!

I was going to mention Stroller Strides too Dawn Massey! In the past year, I've met SO many mommy friends that I now do play dates w on these hot days. And it's been my saving grace. I'm currently 32 weeks pregnant on modified bedrest, with an active 2 1/2 yr old boy at home. I cry every week cause I miss these gals, their support, and the weekly movement SO much. I cannot wait to have this baby and get back in there! Maybe I'll get to meet you there this fall?!!!
