Maternity leave - anxiety

Currently on maternity leave with twin girls. Both 4 months and absolute dream. However some days get very lonely, I don't drive or own a car so limited to where I can go. I often go to the shops, lots of walking to parks for coffee and the girls love being outside. Both are sociable when around family and friends. However I do suffer from anxiety and when I see other mums out with mum friends I feel really panicky and get upset. I want to be able to make some mum friends but sometimes socialising is hard 😅😅 anyone else feel like this? Also I do have mild autism so I do struggle to maintain friendships sometimes. I feel like I'm letting my girls down

I’m the same😅 like I want to make friends for me and little girl but I just don’t want to meet anyone😂xx

Are there any mum and baby classes you could go to? This is how I've made mum friends x

Same I struggle with making friends in general, I find organized mum and baby groups easier

Have a look at DerbyMummyMeets.yasmin on instagram, Yasmin has made a group chat with loaaads of Derby mums and there’s multiple meet ups every week all over Derbyshire. I’ve only been to one but everyone is so lovely!!
