Online Socialising for parents



When I visited England as a tourist everything seemed different I had work, friends, family I could come back to. Well I still can come back to my native country, but now here in the UK is my new life with it's ups and downs.

Since I moved to England things have changed- first few months I was missing what I had in my previous life, I had to start everything from scratch, get used to different culture, with help of my dear husband I felt move comfortable living abroad.
Now I'm at a different stage of my life, I'm going to be a mum soon..I have millions of questions, concerns or sometimes just require a simple mum (to-be) chit- chat.

I'm not alone, there are lots of other mums/dads or mum (dad)-to-be out there who are trying to find someone to talk to, someone who live close to them due to them being lonely or new to the area, one of the places where they can find support or chat could be online community for parents (mums and dads).

Who knew that my daily socialising routine would be via Internet (C&G Community in particular). That I will chat with people who live in different parts of the UK, that I would be able to find online buddies due pretty much at the same time or living not far from my town.

If you wold like to find like-minded people, share your concerns, help someone else with their dilemma or share your amazing moments please join in C&G Community!

C&G Baby Club Community Ambassador and community review

Few weeks ago I have been offered to join new C&G Baby Club Community ambassador programme. 

 I obviously knew about Cow & Gate products but never heard of the community before, for me as a mum-to-be at this stage it is very important to find answers to questions I have, share worries and positive moments and discuss stages of pregnancy with ladies due the same month and even to find online "friends".

Community offers:
  • Community Forum, a welcoming and reassuring place to share
  • Friend Finder, allowing you to connect with expectant mums local to you
  • Birth Month Groups, helping you chat and share tips with mums-to-be at the same stage as you
  • Amazing Moments, helping you celebrate and share all your amazing moments with other mums
- Community Forums offers different topic relevant to either parent or parent-to-be plus Careline specialists can offer you their advice:

- Friend Finder offers to search for a friend by distance, bump or baby in the same stage as yours and you can also search first-time parents only:

- Birth Month Groups means that you can pick month and year (starting from 2011) when your little one was/will be born; post quick milestone/special moment status updates (as shown in the picture):

- You can share your Amazing Moments with public by posting messages or uploading pictures in relevant topic (e.g. I'm pregnant, going public, first kicks, 20 weeks scan, I'm ready to meet my baby, we're family, first smile, first giggle, first spoonful, on the move, first tooth, first word, first birthday, first step):

As you can see it is very easy to find your way around it, it is definitely a new and exciting experience for me and I hope for you as well!
 Please join in if you are planning to have a baby, pregnant/supportive partner or already parents and spread the word!
