Mature Moms Multiply

My biggest older moms playgroup has doubled in size since March. It now has more than 80 members.

What does this mean? It means, obviously, that moms over forty are having babies like hotcakes in San Francisco. And it's probably not an isolated phenomenon.

What's also interesting, however, is that a lot of these older moms sign up online for the playgroup but never do anything more than that.

The biggest reason for that is probably mommy fatigue.

Moms recognize the need to reach out to other moms...they also recognize the need to conserve energy. The two often work at cross purposes.
