Welcome to NAVYforMoms.com!   

We ask that our members not use a last name or email address in their Username - even if it differs from their Sailor's - so please head to “Settings” on the main page right away to set your new Username (be creative!) and add a profile image (no last names visible) to complete your Profile. Then - and this is important! - read these Community Guidelines and this Operations Security (OPSEC) Checklist, for the safety and privacy of all our Sailors.

Then jump right in!  Browse around the site and check out the groups and the information in their Discussion Forums.  

Join this group for boot camp moms, where you'll also find a group for your Pass in Review (graduation) date; and this one for PIR Reference Information.  

Get a head start during boot camp by joining groups for, and learning about, your Sailor's occupational specialty and "A" School; and later your Sailor's duty station and/or Navy ship and homeport. You can also join groups for your own state, region or home town and interests from getting ready for deployment to care package ideas.

Please say Hi when you join a group, and feel free to ask any and all questions - everyone was new once, and there is no "dumb" question.  

This site was created by the U.S. Navy just for you.  We look forward to getting to know you and your Sailor.  

Welcome to the NAVY family - we're so glad you're here!!

Hello Nicole0704 - If you look in the message below, you will see blue letters - click on those for links to places on this site. Here is the link though for the BC Mom and loved ones group - Boot Camp Moms (and loved ones) - Navy For Moms (ning.com) - We had another mom that just posed in our BC Mom group that her son left as well. 

When you go to that group page, be sure to scroll down passed all of the very helpful information, past the discussions and then you will find the Comment Wall, that is where we post & chatter daily. Be sure to come post, the more you post and share the more we will reply. 

Nicole - letting our boys go, is hard. If they have taken on the man of the house responsibilities or we have a really close relationship with them, it can be a struggle until the communication can resume. You are not alone with your struggles. Keep sharing and posting, it helps with making connections with others and just staying a part of the Navy Mom group.
