AMAMOM

Welcome, Mothers of Multiples!!

AMAMOM is a non-profit support group whose activities are directed toward the unique needs of mothers of twins, triplets, and higher order multiples. Our purpose is to share the knowledge and understanding of multiples by exchanging information and mutual support between mothers, medical staff, educators and others, and to gain friendship with mothers who understand multiple issues. The club encourages positive parenting of multiples through monthly meetings with speakers or panels and through a monthly newsletter. The club also sponsors events monthly and throughout the year for the Moms, the Moms and children, and for the entire family. The club also conducts simple research on aspects of multiple births and parenting multiples. Note: You are an "honorary member" (and no dues are due) for approximately 3 months, or if you're an expectant mom, until your babies are 3 months old.

July Meeting - Thursday, July 16

New & Expectant MOMs Forum

We'll start at 6!

Program
We will be having a "Multiples Panel" made up of twins, aged pre-teen through adult and some of their moms (whom are members) to share stories and advice! With the school year fast approaching, we'll discuss school issues that multiples deal with, (and have some teachers who are AMAMOM members contribute too!), then open it up to whatever you'd like to discuss. So bring you questions and take advantage of this treasure trove of information!

DUES are due! If you pay your dues at the June meeting, you'll be entered into the night's raffle drawing. $30 cash or checks are payable to AMAMOM. Please pay dues by July 15.

If you have any questions, please email us at president@amamom.org.
