You have to put yourself out there&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<h3 class&equals;"wp-block-heading">Tip &num;2&colon; Enroll in a baby class<&sol;h3>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>I don&&num;8217&semi;t mean a lamaze type class&period;

It sounds odd and a bit creepy but trust me it is a great way to find local moms &lpar;or dads&rpar; to meet up with maybe at a park or for a stroller walk around the area to get to know some people&period; People make profiles just like on those dating apps&comma; so you can get a sense of their personalties and whatnot before &&num;8220&semi;matching up&&num;8221&semi; and getting together&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;&NewLine;<p>This app is great for those mamas who maybe don&&num;8217&semi;t have the money to spend on joining a group class or maybe are not as outgoing to just say Hi to moms walking around the block&period;
