Hello NOWAMOM  members! I am excited to be transitioning from my previous board position, as newsletter editor to be your new NOWAMOM president! I want to send a HUGE thank you to Stacey Albracht for leading our club for the past two years. I am so thankful she will be remaining on the board as one of our Programs Coordinator!

I joined NOWAMOM in the spring of 2013 when we found out we were pregnant with twins after going through IVF. I was so happy to find a group of women who were navigating this  multiples life along with me.  The first meeting I went to was in October 2013 about 2 weeks  before we were to deliver. It was the Moms on Call   meeting! What a great first experience with this club. I still refer back to things I learned that night!

Your NOWAMOM Board has a lot of great new ideas and events in store for this year! We will soon be announcing the date and location for our annual Fall Festival!

In less than a month kids pre-school age and up will be starting back to school already! My kids still have 2 years in preschool before starting kindergarten, but I have always found this time of year exciting. If you are sending your multiples to school for the first time or are new to GA, please refer to the Georgia Twin Law that gives the parent the choice on whether to keep your multiples in the same classroom or to separate them.  Our Facebook page has had some great discussions on this topic.

August is Consignment Sale month! Registration is now open to be a seller and/or worker at the Fall/Winter Sale! Please login to the NOWAMOM website for registration directions.

I am excited about all the great ideas and events we have planned for this coming year!
