Feeling lonely in my pregnancy
I’m 8 months pregnant, and feel really lonely. Does anyone else??? I can’t do much, have to avoid so many spots due to noise, pollution and being in the right environments for the baby. I’m not working now so I have even less of a desire to go out to restaurants since I’m trying to conserve my money for post pregnancy. Just a crummy feeling right now with lack of social activities. Oh also, it’s way too hot outside to work out and go to the park. I’ll try to hit up the gym for motivation. Let me know if anyone else feels that late term pregnancy is lonely, and not a lot of people calling/reaching out. Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Yes. Definitely feeling this way today. I’m also 8 months pregnant and feel like I can’t do much of anything and it’s effecting my mood. Every activity I try to do requires so much energy that I don’t have. It’s hard, but it’s all going to be worth it and it’s just a season right now. I’m so glad that you made this post bc I was sitting here thinking if anyone else struggled with this.
I wouldn’t say lonely but definitely having fomo and feeling left out my friends lives are interrupted at all they can still carry on with life no adjustments and here I am having to change literally everything about me

I totally feel the same. I moved to a different state a year ago and am not working so I don’t have any friends near. Also, they are all really busy with it being summer and their kids are out and also they have hectic work schedules. But they haven’t been reaching out or really responding to me much and it feels lonely. My husband travels for work, he just got back from his last trip before baby so it’s nice having him home since he really is my best friend. My husband will ask me if I want to go out for dinner and I’m like “um I’m in pajamas lol” putting on make up/doing my hair/thinking about outfits is exhausting. Nothing fits and I don’t want to waste money on clothes that I won’t wear for long. He plays rec sports and I normally go and socialize with the other wives but it’s been soooo hot and muggy and also I’m so tired 😂 All this to say, I completely feel you!!
