WHAT??? You mean if you have a son or daughter in the navy and you hadn't signed up for N4mom's before April you're out of luck??? That's horrible! What can we do?? Anyone we can contact? I can't imagine all this time without this, what would I do? You prob don't know specifics, do you B'snuke? I wonder if it's an opsec issue or what. What a shame to lose this.

Well I certainly hope that this site doesn't go away and that it continues on. It has been the best one for me! Not gonna be so good if new members are not permitted to join it though....

The members you are seeing are people that have already joined N4M previously but just hadn't joined a specific group. They have not been letting new members join N4M since I think April - they did have one day where the admins came on & let people join but then that was it...They were taken over by a new advertising agency and there have been some issues :( frustrating to say the least.

B'snuke-ah! Not surprised to hear you are already involved. What do you mean about N4moms being in limbo??? and what about not admitting new members? I see a new member here today... guess I don't understand

Hi all - Happy Friday!
Glad to see everyone enjoying their time with their sailors!! Or getting ready to enjoy their time in some cases....
jbird - I'm actually one of the admins on the nuke mom group and my son is out now lol! Like Carol Ann said it's hard to just walk away - this has been a big part of my life for so many years now that I feel like we are all family <3 And I've been lucky enough to meet a few of my Navy mom's over the years too!
It's sad though that Navy for Moms is in limbo right now. They aren't adding new members & there have been issues with the ad group overseeing it. Hopefully they'll get things figured out soon!

JCMom: Thanks. I do think it's nice when Moms stay on here cuz it helps the newbies with their questions. If I hadn't received advice when I didn't understand something or didn't know something it would have made my time as an official Navy Mom all that much harder. That is why this support group was started and why it continues to thrive because of the older/experienced Moms in the group and their advice. And not to knock on the new Moms either as they have also taught me a thing or two.

Carol ann thank you for all your input and advice. I really appreciate all the help here and when my sailor was in boot camp. So happy for all those who were able to go and see their sailors return. I am looking forward to seeing my son soon. I will stay with this group and check in with everyone now and then. Take care everyone!

carol ann-what FB do you see pictures on? Truman FB? I don't use it so I need guidance, ha ha. But again, well said.

jbird: Thanks for "getting me". The time DID fly by and I miss those days. Whenever I see a sailor in uniform (which doesn't happen very often here in OH) I still feel the kinship and pride to the Navy and to all those who serve and I suppose I always will. Never completely got the military and the sacrifices that are and have been made by those who serve until I became a Navy Mom and experienced it first hand. Guess that's why I still feel close to you all. We definitely share a bond and no one else really completely gets it unless they have experienced it too. You are all such a special group of women and I guess that's why I am still attached. Love seeing all the picts on FB of all the happy reunions and remember how I felt all so well
