Hey J., I run a moms group in Rancho Cordova thruogh meetup but also run the mommmy organizer group too.....whre in Sac do you live, maybe there is a group you have not looked into yet....
Have you looked into MOPS or a strollerstrides class. MOPS is more structured than a meetup group and may have more poilcies.....then there is strollerstrides where they work out with babies in the strollers as well as have planned playdates....
also check out CafeMom or Yahoo Mom groups...if anything you might meet some mommas in your area to have playdates with
And, last but not least.....try starting your own mommy group...one of the shyest mommas in my groups started her own Phillipino moms group and it is a great success. Here is a woman who came to the US not konwing anyone and now she has so many friends she has more than what she has in the Phillipines!
You are more than welcome to join my group, but we are at a membership freeze.....we have 50 members and any number above that just starts making the group less close and members do not know each other. We do have a waiting list and you are more than welcome to submit your application and wait for a spot to open up, but I do not forsee any spots coming up in he near fuutre.
If you do start your own group, you can email me anytime on questions etc...don't mind at all......and I probably would have started another momma group, but my girls are "aging" out of playgroup soon and I'm moving on to the next best thing.....girlscouts!
Good Luck and please contact me if you need any help.
