Loneliness

Yeah I’ve pretty much fallen out of touch with anyone in my life who isn’t pregnant or already a mum (I’m 29 weeks pregnant) which sucks because I always tried to make an effort with my friends who were pregnant/new mums and it’s sad that so many of my friends didn’t do that for me. Of course the difficulty is now all my remaining friends have babies and toddlers so obviously we don’t see/talk to each other as much as we used to, even though we’re thankfully still close. It’s so lonely I hate it.
@Ebunoluwa at the beginning I was fine with it now it plays on my mind a lot but hopefully I do get used it. It’s difficult and makes me feel selfish sometimes I wanna go out and have a break but I can’t cause I have no one to go with whereas my partner can go out with his mates and work colleagues so it’s also difficult for him to understand what I’m going through as a full time stay at home mum
@Chloe i can honestly relate i made such efforts with my friends but no off them even check on me leave me on delivered for days but are still active on socials i guess I will get used to it but the loneliness is just such a horrible feeling
I'm the same. Think I have 2 actual friends now.🤣 no one bothered with me after the birth of my daughter in May. It does get lonely and you can feel alone especially if your partner is working full time and if he carrys on seeing his friends. Just know that you are not alone. Here if you need a chat 🩷
Hey mama this is tough. I have family and friends around and still feel so lonely. Has peanut helped u make friends? Can u try and get out with the baby and when ur hubby has a weekend off give yourself some time to relax. You could go out get a coffee or whatever u enjoy x
All this things are normal tbh. I used to have 2 friend circle.. the other one completely stopped talking to me and never met my kids. The other one checks up most time. We don’t get any help either just myself and my partner. Don’t worry you will get used to it
