We know the struggle new Moms experience (whether it's your first or your second and you are adjusting to 2 or more kids) everyday adapting to life and learning your new role of Mom and still trying to hold onto a small piece of yourself. We know how bittersweet the experiences are because on one hand, you have been looking forward to the first moment of motherhood and meeting your new baby. But on the other hand, now that it is here, you might feel overwhelmed with it all. We understand. It's good for everyone to find a safe place to land for support, friendship and understanding. We've listed some amazing support groups, organizations, businesses and networks for new Moms and Moms with toddlers right here. Let us know on social media what you think?

As always, best wishes on your journey!

We love the movies! And you don't have to stop going just because you have a little one, bring them along. Every Thursday afternoon, enjoy a new feature film with your baby. They offer a Mom and Baby - friendly event so that you can have a nice break. The theatre sound is reduced to protect baby's ears, they offer stroller parking and will periodically have special events running before or after the feature. Better yet, get your Mommy friends and make it a fun afternoon outing! Dads, friends and grandparents are welcome too. Check out their upcoming list of movies at Cineplex Odeon Southland Mall, www.moviesformommies.com and follow them on Facebook.
