I can only speak for my chapter ( which is awesome) but most of our support meetings/play dates are during the day while we have other functions that take place on the weekend or during the evening hours. We have moms that were SAH but have returned to work, moms that work Part time, moms that work at home (for a company) and SAHM ( who still work, just not for a paycheck). Good Fortune! <strong><i>Thanks for chiming in Sherri! I noticed that there are moms in all types of situations in Mocha Moms. That is why I joined as a working mom. :) I will unfortunately miss the official playdates but I get to attend meetings, Sister Circles and Mom's Night Out type events. I'm sure I can create some personal weekend playdates from there! :)</i></strong> Mocha Moms may be primarily SAHM and WAHM, but our goal is to support Moms of Color no matter what choices they make for their families.

It might be the thing you need to boost your confidence. You never know unless you get out there. I have been toying with the idea of joining MM. Come back and tell us how it goes.

Go! Enjoy yourself and when you leave you'll be feeling all sexy and whatnot. I'm thinking of taking a lapdance class for Valentine's Day. I'm more concerned about my lack of coordination and the fact that I really can't walk in heels. <strong><i>I am not a great dancer at all and I manage. :) You don't have to wear heels. I was in upper levels with girls who never wore any shoes. It looks less graceful to me barefoot but it works out fine!</i></strong> Maybe this class is exactly what you need. Go!

I still have yet to visit that group. I am looking forward to getting back to my exercise program and get back in shape. I want to know how well I can do. I understand your feelings. It can be rough getting used to a post pregnancy body. Sounds like they plan fun activities. I still have yet to visit that group.

Don't be so hard on yourself, you just had a baby so it takes time for your body to get back to normal. I keep hearing great things about Mocha Mom but haven't had time to join yet. <strong><i>Hmmm...I do have some yoga pants that are tighter than I would wear at the gym. I might be able to wear those. They do keep in dim in there LOL.

Can't wait to join MM too. Though I thought it was SAHMs. Either way, I want to make sure Foxy has lots of little friends to play with. <strong><i>Not all of the moms are SAHMs or WAHMs. I get the impression a lot of them are though. Will know for sure soon! They do have play dates during "business hours" every week though.</i></strong> Yay. Can’t wait to join MM too.
