Hey everyone. I have been coming to thenest.com for awhile but never got on the boards until now. My husband and I were born and raised in Dayton... his family traveled alot when he was young, and I moved around alot in my late teens/early 20's... so being stuck here is hard, but its where my husband has a good job and we have a mortgage here. We also have a 15 month old son, and I am 30 weeks pregnant with another boy on the way.. it is very hard being stuck in this area, especially with being pregnant and sick 90% of the time. I am always looking to make new friends, so if you live around the area it would be wonderful to get to know you! Or even if you aren't... friends are always good!
Re: Stuck in Dayton
I consider myself "stuck" ha ha. I grew up in Beavercreek, moved to Cincy for 5 + years, now I'm back...north of Dayton due to DH's job. We are finally settling in, and adjusting to living away from the city.
I love meeting new people! My name is Missy, nice to "meet" you!
So glad I am not the only one! I grew up in Bellbrook, husband in Enon. I've lived in Knoxville, Tn, Tampa Florida, Cleveland Ohio.. and traveled to numerous cities before I ended up back in Dayton and met my husband. Being "settled" is hard for me.. but I am noticing the more I am here the harder it is to leave (I think because its not just me, but a whole family). But we live in urban Dayton now (near MVH) and outside of the hick like neighbors, its nice knowing we live close to the city... although my husband would like to have more land.
Anyway... Missy its nice to meet you!
You should definitely check out the Cincy Baby board as well, there are quite a few girls from the Dayton area on there. Here's the link!

Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
Hey! So sorry to hear that you feel stuck here in Dayton! I actually love it here!
I am originally from eastern Ohio / western PA area, but went to college in western Ohio. I moved here to be near my old college roommates, and met my husband who is from Middletown. We now live in Springboro, a 'burb of Dayton.
I find that it's always hard to find and foster adult 'girl' relationships, especially when you move to a new town. FI is my best friend!!! It's definitely weird not meeting all that many new people, but I guess that's why we're all on the Nest so much!
Good luck in meeting people, Cinci Nesties are pretty nice, as well as us awesome Dayton Nesties....!
