[JenniferLStephens]

I'm in Morgantown...so pretty far away from you gals. But I grew up in Fayetteville and my parents are still there and DH's parents live in Hurricane, so we're down that way pretty often.

[joyfulsoul]

I am in Parkersburg. But we end up in Clarksburg and Charleston/Huntington quite a bit too. And it is sooo cool to see other WV mamas that CD!

[foxymama]

Cool! It is so nice to know there are others around here!

[joyfulsoul]

Anybody know of any b&m cd stores in wv? I would love to fondle new dipes before I buy them!:giggle:

[cowmommy]

IDK about B&M stores but there is a yummy Yarn store somewhere near Kanawha City/Charleston :drool: I have yet to go but Mel got me a GC for Christmas

Holy bajolies! I have family in Clarksburg/Summit Park. My cousin is the pastor at the Summit Park Baptist Church and my best friend IRL is the theft prevention officer at Sears in the Meadowbrook Mall! We live in Ohio but we're there occassionally...it used to be more frequently until we had DS.

[Jeanie]

I am in morgantown!! DD was potty trained last year, so not much going on here at DS for me. I have few friends that CD but I always wondered if there was anyone from DS.

We visit Charleston, Parkersburg and Canaan valley a lot to see family and friends. I am glad to see other West Virginians here..

i'm in Hampshire County, in the Potomac Highlands. I'm not *too* far from Berkeley Springs - probably like 40 minutes. Which out here is as close as you're likely to get LOL

And speaking of Falling Water, my DH grew up in Marlow, his dad and gma still live in Berkeley Co - Hedgesville.

I grew up in Morgantown, still visit occasionally since my dad lives there. We visit Elkins a lot too since my mom is there.

[joyfulsoul]

I've never heard of this, but I googled it and it looks fun. Have you been before? What is it like?

We are about an hour and a half away (I think) so we might try and make it.

[ClothDiaperMePlease]

We go most years, lol. We are kayakers and used to live over there.

It is a lot of fun. But be warned, there is a lot of booze. I am ok with having my kiddos there, there are bands, food, and venders.

[fieroangel]

Hi I'm in South Charleston.

[joyfulsoul]

Hi I'm in South Charleston.

Hi everyone! Saint Albans here, originally from Morgantown. There is a girl in Morgantown who sells CDs. I just met her last Sat and she was super nice. Her website is www.mygreenbabywv.com - she will come to your house and you can play with a bunch of different kinds of dipes.:yay:

[bjaneen]

I'm about 5 minutes from Wheeling WV and work there, live in OH though :)

[olliebelle]

Hi mamas,
I never imagined there would be so many WV mamas on here, I live in Huntington and my sis lives in Hurricane. If you guys ever set a play date let me know I'd love to meet up. Anyone know of any good mommy and me type classes in the area. My DD is 13 months and I've been looking to get her in some kind of activity. Thanks!

[JennifersCloth]

Anybody know of any b&m cd stores in wv? I would love to fondle new dipes before I buy them!:giggle:

The Drybee's & Wahmies company is in Beckley, WV I don't know that they have a B& M store though.

[wvgemini]

I know nobody has really posted on here in a while but I'm back from a little hiatus :giggle: I'm living around Beckley now but will be moving to the Charleston area (St. Albans, Winfield, Scott Depot) in a few months.

[Zpatrol]

Oh, this thread makes me so happy.
I'm originally from winfield (Fraziers bottom, actually) although currently we're in Richmond, Va. I'm trying to so hard to get my hubby on board with us moving back. (all my family is still in hurricane, St. Albans, Teays Valley......)
We're looking at Hurricane right now and would more than likely buy our first house! yippee.
If we come that way I definitely wanna organize some play groups!!!

[LillyIvy]

:yay: Pick me! Pick me!

I'm in Newell, WV. Look at a map, can't get any further north without hitting Ohio (I can almost spit on Ohio it's so close, lol)

I'm always up for meeting people!

[ejb]

I live really close to Morgantown, WV.

I'm so happy we are getting a cloth diaper store downtown!!

[jill_wv]

Hi fellower WV'ers. New here to diaperswappers. I"m also from WV, Wayne County. Just wanted to say hi!

[crysalis]

How did I miss this thread? :giggle:

I was born and raised in Point Pleasant, lived a few years in Huntington, and now we live right about in the middle, in Ashton/Apple Grove, 25 miles from Huntington. We like living in the 'country'. lol.

[crysalis]

Oh, yeah, and we also have a homebirth/normal birth meetup group in the Charleston/St. Albans area! We meet every fourth Saturday at 4:00pm.

http://homebirth.meetup.com/323/

[heidi_naw]

Morgantown here! And I checked out the new CD store today - so cool :-) The owner is awesome!

[jill_wv]

I ordered some diapers off ebay called Nubunz. They seem like really good quality diapers, very much like Bum Genius 3.0. After I got the package I noticed they were shipped form Eleanor, WV, it's between Huntington and Charleston. Their website, nubunz.com, says they have a store. Has anyone been there? I was wondering what else they sell like carriers or other types of cloth dipes.

Oh man I use just moved in Jan from M town I can not believe how much I miss it!!! I am so bummed out that they put a store in after I left. :banghead: I always thought it would be a great business in that area bc all the moms I knew in the breastfeeding support groups cded there children. I am glad I had my DS there bc I felt as if I had a great support system from all the wonderful mommas. They are the reason I cded, I knew nothing about it before hand lol and I was able to do extended breast feeding. :giggle:

Take me home take me home to the place I belong WV mountain momma take me home country rose!!!!:cry:

And to think I amnot even originally from there and I miss it so much!!!!

[heidi_naw]

Dagmomma - how did you get hooked up with your breastfeeding group? I really would like to get involved in one - I have been reading a ton about it because I will be BFAR (breast feeding after reduction).

Before I had my 1st on sept 15th 2007 I started going to the meetings. I never been around breastfeeding moms and I wanted to do it soooooooo bad. I do not know how but my mother found the number somewhere and I called and started going to the meetings. If you pm me I can email you the email address of the "leader." I believe they meet at the wilkes center on the 2nd thursday of each month but that may have changed. I would however be extremely jealous bc I have not found a group where I live now yet :giggle:

[WasabiMommi]

We live in VA but we are about 8 miles away from Charlestown. I go there often for flea markets. Also, my mom lives in Hardy county (Mathias). Anyone around there? :goodvibes:

[marcimommi]

I'm in Harpers Ferry!!

I'm not a B&M store but I do make house calls, however, I'm in Morgantown. My parents live about 45 min. north of Parkersburg. So I could arrange a meeting when I'm in to visit them.

There is a relatively new parents group called WV Mountain Sprouts, one of the main girls is getting a local Le Lache Club started up, but I'm not sure what they are called right now. Her name is Kristy. I think she has been working with someone through Mon General.
Check us out on Yahoo Groups. We have a meeting this Thursday at 5pm. Halloween party. We meet at the new wellness center out in Westover. Let me know if your interest in more info on them and I can get it to ya.

Ah, I saw this too late!! I would love some info on the group. I'm trying to get involved before baby to meet some mommas and get more comfortable with BFing! Thanks!!!

[MamaInMarch]

Heidi, it definitely helps to be around other women who breastfeed. LLL has been a great support to me! I didn't realize Morgantown didn't have a group going - hopefully that will come to fruition soon. You may want to pick up a copy of The Breastfeeding Mother's Guide to Making More Milk. I understand it has great info on BFAR and here is the companion site: http://www.bfar.org/ You can do it, mama!

Megan, I assume the CD store is not you, then? I can't believe I was home last weekend and didn't know about it. I thought the closest B&M was in Sewickley. Where is it in Motown? I got some Thirsties covers and they are really nice - they fit Isaiah so well! Do you think you'll be carrying Thirsties? You know I'd rather get them from you, if I can!

Yes, Kristy is awesome. She's helped me out a few times now. Here is a link to the group on facebook. They meet once a month.

I'm also trying to find someone local to get my favorite CD's from. I love the thirsty covers too. I also love BG's and I don't think either of you sell them. Let us know if you are able to or not. :thumbsup:
