Playcentre, open coffee groups, music groups, playgroups.
Plunket well our plunket run quite a few things for parents and children. dont be put off because its plunket, the nurses have nothing to do with these groups they are all run by other parents who also want to make friends.

Denny's meet ups are somewhat regular Clover. But not sure when the next one is happening. Keep an eye on the meet up thread. Also, I try and have a coffee group every now and then. Am in the process of arranging a date for that.
And anyone is welcome, you don't need to be pregnant, or a parent to come along.

Before I had kids, I'd do heaps of stuff, like book groups, go out to lunch with girls from work, quiz nights etc. I meet some great people and made some lovely friends.
We moved when DD was 6 months. Since then I have made one good friend thru having kids. I have met people thru playcentre etc, but I do struggle to take that next step and suggest something outside of the group activity I always think they are busy etc. I know how you feel I so miss my old friends sometimes.

I am in this situation too. I have a couple of close friends still in the country the rest have gone overseas on their OE. Of the ones who are here none of them have kids and work during the day and have busy weekends clubbing etc, so it's a bit isolating. I also don't have a car so it's hard to get out to coffee groups but I really want to try. It's easy to get stuck in your own little bubble and not make an effort as it's scary but I agree that you have just got to get out there and make an effort. You could start a thread in the mums meet up section maybe for TTCers to meet up? Or anyone in your local area? Also joining some kind of class or group is a good way to meet people. And online groups/forums for common interests. It seems more people than I realise have this problem
