"I know when I first had my baby, I brought her home and I was like, what am I supposed to do now? Who am I supposed to meet?," Kas Miller said.

If you're trying to find a group near you, just search Facebook using some keywords like "Tampa Mom" or "Largo Mom" and see what pops up.
There's more than likely one right in your city. But, most of them are private and you might have to answer a few questions to verify you live nearby.
