Who wants to sit in front of a zoom meeting for moms for 2 hours? And I see it’s still the same price as when I first did it years ago with my first. This seems like just a money grab now. just a vent. i’m really disappointed.

I agree it was a huge disappointment that half of our sessions were virtual - the whole entire point is to get out of the house with your new baby and bond with other new moms in person.

My PACE group took turns hosting during virtual weeks - in retrospect, that was totally f-ed that PACE put the onus on US, as moms of newborns, to do that. Our PACE leader told us she couldn’t meet in person during our virtual weeks bc she had kids at home. It sucks that they’ve gamed the system to make it a cushy WFH situation for themselves when we clearly wanted to be in person.
