I'm going to be a first time dad soon and want to meet others in a similar place in their life. Anyone else out here in the lemmiverse a new dad? Or anyone know of any dad groups around Eugene?

Hey there, Eugene dad to an almost 3-year-old. I found that the Eugene men's social group has a dad section in the discord and I post there a lot to talk with other dads. There's also a meetup weekly at tugman Park in Eugene, there's also a parent's group out in Veneta. Don't know where you're located at, but there are some groups out here. A lot of them are billed as mommy groups or parent groups, but I've met a lot of really awesome dads at both of those.

Also, if you haven't yet, I would check out parenting now's parenting groups, my wife and I met so many families through there Who are kid still plays with today, and we became friends with the other families as well. It was an awesome resource for meeting other parents.
