Stoughton New Moms Support Group, South

Old Colony YMCA, Thursdays 10-11:30am

Designed for new moms
This support group offers opportunities for women to share their experiences, questions and concerns. It can also help lesson the isolation and loneliness so many new moms feel. The transition to motherhood can be an enormous and sometimes overwhelming adjustment. We don't want anyone to go through it alone.
