Mom Friends Uptown

ejunion

I have been living in NOLA for 3 years, and I just had my first baby.  I moved here to get my masters, so all of the good friends I've made here either moved away or are not mommies and do a lot of non-mom activities.  I don't want to sound desperate or anything, but it would be nice to meet some other moms in the area.  I live uptown, and I'm home with my son about 95% of the time.  Does anyone know of anything inexpensive/free where new moms can meet?  Or is anyone interested in going out for a mid-day coffee?
