Bit of a daft question - when did you start going to baby groups?

[PumpkinPie2013]

I have a lovely little boy who is 11 days old so not planning to go anywhere just yet. I can't drive for another 5 weeks due to c-section and we live to rurally to walk.

However, I'm thinking ahead to after Christmas when my DH returns to work after the holidays.

I'll be able to drive by then and will need to get out and about as I know no one with a baby and the few neighbours we have work so I'll go barmy on my own all day and want my boy to get out too.

He'll be around 6 weeks old - is this too young for baby group? I'm thinking he may well sleep through it or not really play much at that age but a change of scenery will be good for us both.

When did you start going to groups? TIA

We started at 4 weeks. I needed to get out the house and speak to some adults. Now at 6 weeks we are having the week off- we are both a bit under the weather, just taking long walks instead. He's far too young to know what's going on, and mostly comfort feeds through most of it, but it's mainly for my sanity and so I can learn some appropriate songs to sing to him!
