[quote=Anonymous]Why don’t you just find friends who are your age?

Most women in their mid-late 40s dont have toddlers. 35 is already advanced maternal age. I had a baby at 38 and it was labeled a geriatric pregnancy.

This thread is about an old mom wanting to find mom friends who are also old. There is another thread about a working mom who wants to find other working mom friends to delve into deep conversations with. Don’t you guys have any friends from before having kids???

I gave birth to two kids in nyc where I had lots of friends from before becoming a mom. I had friends from college, grad school, work and just friends of friends. I did not have friends and mom friends. I just had friends. I then moved to dc and had another child and stopped working. I made mom friends from the neighborhood and my children’s preschool and elementary. I only have mom friends here because I didn’t know anyone before I moved here with kids. There are moms of my kids’ friends. Some are moms I met at school or some kid event that I am friends with but our kids aren’t. There are mom friends I met in preschool when kids were friends but the kids grew apart but we still keep in touch and hang out. I don’t discriminate on age, race or book interests.[/quote]
