Difference between Mommy buddy forum and social groups?

[Metalmama]

I'm just wondering what's appropriate where - for example if a thread is for mommy's with something in common (but not a due date) should that go in the mommy buddies or is it more appropriate in Social groups?

Thanks

I'd prefer it be in Social Groups, but for now, I'll leave the decision up to the thread starter.

Social Groups have more features - including picture albums, but they don't have any type of alerts of subscriptions.

There's another thread in this forum on Social groups describing their functions.
