I was wondering if there are going to be any meetings closer to Owosso, MI if not in Owosso because I would love to attend a meeting but cannot drive to Lansing. Also, do you work along with MOPS groups in your general Lansing area because there is one located around the corner that meets every second Friday of the month? Thank you for your time.
Donnesa, I don’t think there are any closer to Owosso, but if it’s closer for you to be in Flint, here is a list of meetings around your area. I still think East Lansing is closer, though, and we do meet in the evenings. http://www.llli.org/web/michigan.html
We haven’t gotten involved specifically with other groups, though we have had a table at local mom2mom sales and raffled off baby gift baskets, which has created a lot of awareness, so we have a number of pregnant and new mothers in our group. Of course people come and go as they nurse, then wean, then have another baby…
