Lonely feeling
My baby boy is almost 4 weeks old. So happy with him and my family of now 5.
But does anyone else just feel lonely. Like all these “friends” that said would be there.. aren’t.
Hardly any communication and just feel lost?
I love being a Mum, always have done and always will. This time seems harder and not having the people who I thought would be there is making it even worse.
Please tell me I’m not alone x

@Kimmy that’s awful 😢 I’m really sorry to hear that. it is always those you think will be around who aren’t 😩 and it really hurts doesn’t it. Only one of my friends has seen my son and some family haven’t yet. It’s lonely being a Mum isn’t it 😩 my husband is back at work and have no time. There’s 6 years between my other two kids so they can’t play together. It’s like we are all separate now 🙁 I hope u r ok x
Bless you, that does sound very tough. It is hard. I think all we can do is try to enjoy the present moment as much as we can. Those people are the ones missing out. And our babies grow so quickly, so let’s enjoy them whilst they are still so small 🥰
@Kimmy couldn’t agree with you more 🥰

You are not alone, I was just saying this yesterday to my much older daughter (she’s 22) I have a 5 week old little boy and I’m surprised by how little effort so called friends have made. My best friend of 25 years has not even seen him yet although she wants to be godmother. I only saw her 3 times early on in my pregnancy and it was me who initiated. Even friends who I thought I was super close with at work have barely been in touch since I’ve been on mat leave.. it’s been quite lonely and disappointing 😕
