Hello can I please have a private post?
I have a 6 month old baby and she is my whole world, I’ve never felt love like it and I can’t imagine my life without her and my OH is brill. However, since having her all my friends have disappeared, I don’t get invited places anymore and I’m just so lonely (especially when my OH is at work) I end up being sat in all day with her, which I enjoy and love watching her grow, but it’s so lonely having no one to talk to all day. I take her to a play group every week which I enjoy but that’s just 1 hour a week.
Does anyone else feel like this?

I know exactly what you mean I have a 3 year old and 1 year old and I just find myself being bored not because of the kids I don’t see anyone and get stressed out chasing one child then the other lol I don’t go to playgroups I found a lot of them are clicky parents which I don’t do or fit into it’s very hard but if u want to chat inbox me 🙂
I’m currently 21 weeks pregnant. All my friends have kids now that are years old 2+. When they had them it’s not that I didn’t want to be around but it’s more a case of mums generally want to be around other mum’s and socialise their babies with other babies, I’m already finding myself talking to more pregnant women than non pregnant for advice and sharing experiences- same when I got married I wanted to be around other engaged people to talk all things wedding. When you’re the childless friend I found myself aware that I wasn’t any good to my mum friends for advice, I had no little one to keep their child company at play groups so I was aware of it and respected it. I never cut my friends off but respected the change in dynamic. Have you spoke to your friends and said how you feel? Maybe tell them you just want ‘normal’ chat, I am still learning about baby stuff but back when my friends had kids I had no clue so I could only offer normal conversation 😂 maybe they worry they cant offer you what they think you need/want to talk about now?
You really do find out who you true friends are when you have a baby! A lot of it though is they’re working. Mush is a good app to meet other Mum’s so is mummy social and and local Facebook groups. X
