The lucky ones are bubbling over with happiness. Others feel lonely, exhausted and sometimes deeply depressed. Only other mothers with toddlers or new babies understand how you feel, which is why we started MAMA. Join our group and you can meet new friends, share your feelings openly and both give and get a lot of real help.
If you're interested, contact Denise Beddow on 01454 324654. Yate MAMA meets Tuesdays 10am-12noon, term time, in the Main Hall, Shireway Community Centre.
