What Makes a Great Mum Friend Group (And How to Build One)
Some friend groups fade. Some last 30 years. The difference isn't luck — it's a few specific habits.
What lasting friend groups have in common
1. A rhythm
The strongest groups meet up on a recurring schedule. Once a month, once a quarter — but reliably. Without rhythm, life eats friendship.
2. A core size of 3-6
Bigger than two = more resilient when life gets busy. Smaller than seven = scheduling stays possible.
3. Shared activities, not just talking
Doing things together creates new memories and shared identity. Talk-only friendships drift faster.
4. Distributed leadership
No single organiser carries everything. Different people lead at different times.
5. Low-stakes contact between meet-ups
A meme in the group chat. A birthday text. Tiny touches keep warmth alive.
How to build this from scratch
You probably already have the people. What's missing is the system. Bloom is the system: voting, scheduling, rotation. The friendship part is up to you.

Stop planning. Stop chasing the group chat. Bloom does the organising — you just show up.
