We moved into our house when I was four months pregnant with Kaitlyn. I knew I needed to find a pediatrician, and a dentist, and a playground for the boys, but I was so busy getting us settled into the house and then being on bedrest that I didn’t have a chance to do any of those things until right before she was born. One day in about my 35th week, I realized that newborns are supposed to get a visit in the hospital from their pediatrician, and Kaitlyn didn’t have one! I ended up flipping through the Yellow Pages searching for an office that was within reasonable driving distance of our house, but what I really could have used was a personal recommendation. Too bad I didn’t know about Mamasource.com!

You may have joined other online communities for Moms, but what makes Mamasource unique is that it connects you with LOCAL Moms. Mamasource knows I live in Lansing, so when I log in, I might see a link that reads “Please help another Lansing area Mom with…” and then a question from another Mom. It also helps facilitate meeting other Moms in your area, if you are brave enough! You can get to know someone on the site and then suggest getting together for coffee or a play date. It’s hard enough being home all day with no one but toddler to talk to, but it’s even harder if you have to sit at the playground alone.

So whether you are a new Mom looking for advice on pediatricians or have older kids who want play dates, check out Mamasource. Chances are there are other Moms in your area looking for the same thing!
