@Rosemary McMurray I’m here for you 🫶🏻
Thank you for sharing !! I’m also the first of my close friends to have a baby and definitely have similar feelings. It’s so lonely 🥲 and no one really understands. I do give them some grace, but I will say that I’m still kinda bitter about it at times.
losing my bestfriend of 18 years over this. I tried to explain how I felt but she got defensive. It hurt the most when she said I chose to “be with my man and baby” instead of going to dinner with her like I tried to plan. My baby was colicky and I hadn’t slept for what felt like days and days so I canceled.
@Hannah it’s normal to feel bitter! I don’t blame you at all I still struggle with those feelings!!
@Kayla oh my 😔 this breaks my heart and I wouldn’t be lying if I said I haven’t gone through similar with one of my close friends! It’s so unfortunate
I lost a few friends but one close one told me ever since i got married & had a kid i had changed. At the time i was dealing with Postpartum and i finally opened up. All she said was," I'll get back to you about that." After some time of silence, she let a mutual friend know that she was cutting off friendship coz i have been different!!
@Allen literally same!!! But we HAVE changed for the better in my opinion. Some people let jealousy get in the way. I had a friend who literally said the same thing and she said she didn’t think it was best to be friends anymore because she felt like we weren’t on the same path of life anymore! Like WHAT 😠😭
Truly needed this. Thank you!!
