Welcome to our online community for mothers and expecting mothers!, created by Oupa Jan, who wishes to share his insights and knowledge with the community he so loves.

This group stems from him witnessing his children, daughters, sons, nieces, nephews, friends children starting the journeys of becoming parents, and he wishes to share the lessons and knowledge him and Ouma learnt over the years, combined with the collective knowledge that exists in the world today, hence the Mamma Group.

Please Note: This group is for the purpose of sharing experiences, offering guidance, and providing support to one another on issues related to getting pregnant, being pregnant, and raising and caring for newborns to toddlers. We do not represent ourselves as medical experts, and any medical-related care and advice discussed within the group should always be confirmed with appropriately qualified individuals or institutions.

This is a safe and supportive space where moms can come together to share their experiences, ask questions, and offer each other advice and encouragement. Whether you're a first-time mom or have several children, we believe that every mom can benefit from connecting with others who are going through similar experiences.
