Feeling a bit down - vulnerable post! 💜

Not sure if it’s just a bad day, but feeling a bit fed up. Not so much the symptoms, more that I feel a bit lonely! My husband and I are connected and happy - but don’t feel like I’m getting what I need elsewhere 😞 My friends either are too busy to meet up so I can actually share the news with them (!) or just very much in the camp of “I never want babies, you are crazy, your life is going to be different” because they have a cliche view of what parenthood will be like. To be honest, I think entering a different life stage just makes you reflect more broadly, hope this isn’t to mopey for a Friday night!! I’m 11 weeks 1 day. Would be great to chat! Xx

I feel in the same boat in regards to friends for sure. This is my second so feel like everyone’s even more not interested. None of my friends have children so I can’t relate to them in that sense anymore. I’m trying to use peanut to connect to more likeminded people in my area hopefully and make some friendships out of it 🤷🏼‍♀️ But you’re not alone in this, I think a lot of people experience the same 🩷 Always here if you wanna chat/vent x

It’s a tough time right now, hormones, worries, doubts, sickness, tiredness x Chloe’s right - you aren’t alone! Xx

I am in the exact same situation and I also live an hour away from my friends and family. None of my close friends have kids or want kids and my partner is very supportive and incredible at supporting me, but I feel like my life is changing drastically and I’m almost losing myself? This is definitely something I can relate to, I’m sorry you’re feeling crap xx

I'm in the same boat a friend I had for 15 years has kids of her own just hasn't spoken to me in 8 months since she got married I have no idea why, I have no friends and I love my life but sometimes I just feel so alone with no friends.
