You have plenty of time to get a job yet! I was studying for part of my pregnancy and then did temping for a while, until I was about 37 weeks.

All of the ideas here are great, there are tons of ways to meet people, maybe try and join a mothers coffee group or contact Plunket?

We always found that when we were in Japan, going to the park was a great way to meet mums. Even when you are pregnant, reading a magazine or something. Often people (or kids) will come up to you and strike up a conversation. jake would often "visit" homeless drunk dodgy men in the park. I don't recommend that, but you can see it could work]]> Tue, 10 Jan 2006 10:48:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1346&PID=23804&title=lonely#23804 <![CDATA[Lonely:( : also if you are only newly pregnant...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1346&PID=23794&title=lonely#23794 Author: Bizzy

also if you are only newly pregnant maybe a part time job, or temping. or a volunteer job.
and if you are near the beach, head down there and start up conversations with people, maybe those with young kids.. oh heres an idea - you could do babysitting, then you could meet other mums and maybe even have babysitters in return for when it is your turn.]]> Tue, 10 Jan 2006 09:52:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1346&PID=23794&title=lonely#23794 <![CDATA[Lonely:( : Hi Kellie, welcome to Oh Baby.

Hi Kellie! I moved to NZ from Germany when I was 10 weeks pregnant and didn't know anyone either so I know how you feel. I have to say Oh Baby and the internet helped so much! I met people online and then later in perosn and it was great. I also met people at our antenatal class. It's not easy but I decided noone was going to come and "find" me so I had to get out there!!

Hiya Kellie!! It is so rough moving to a new place. I moved to Sydney a while back knowing no one, it was so hard to meet people, the only thing that I found to help was to talk to absolutely everyone you meet and being pregnant and then having a baby is an excellent starting point of conversation!

hi kellverona! Sorry to here you're feeling so blue. It can be pretty rough justy moving, let alone going through baby and stuff. Maybe join an ante-natal group. you could try and meet others also pregnant and then you (hopefully) can get together after the kids are born too.

 Im only 6 weeks pregnant. My fiance and I had just moved to Papamoa and he works full time and I stay at home. I dont know anyone. Cant find a job because of being pregnant, and getting very depressed. Anyone have any ideas on what I can do? My dreams have all come true. I met a fantastic guy, having a baby, live in a nice home near the beach... Im just missin some friends. I lived in Australia for 8 years so most of my friends are over there. Its so hard not having a close friend whom I can talk to, meet up with, do stuff. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to read this and hope someone can come up with some ideas for me. Happy New Year all. take care.
