Give yourself lots of grace, for reason I think I went trough the same thing during my first pregnancy. Like I somehow hadn’t become mom friend material yet since I hadn’t given birth yet 🙄 so it would be hard to categorize me and put e in an archetype or a box it makes some people uncomfortable, unfortunately when they can’t label people. It’ might just be human nature so it’s just mildly annoying to me now, it used to really get under my sin and make me feel unlovable but it wasn’t true. I did have some growing to do but that was mostly just not letting this define my worth improving myself and approaching social situations positively. If I felt angsty or had some friend trauma preventing me from doing that I’d give myself small breaks as long it wasn’t forever or self sabotaging
They don’t know what they’re missing keep being your awesome self and seek out friends who love you. Also! The newborn phase is rough, give yourself grace as things will start being less hectic after 6 months in my experience. Keep trying, but don’t expect friendship perfection from yourself
Also being a young mom isn’t super common, so a lot of people in their late teens and 20s will find you “unrelateable”. This isn’t your fault or theirs, doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with you. Are there any moms groups local to you? Where do you typically look for potential friends? You’ve got this and can find friends that make you happy 💕
heyyy I know exactly how you feel! I’m in the same boat. But I had my baby 2 months ago. And have been home ever since caring for her💕it’s hard sometimes. And sometimes our partners don’t understand. But I’m here for you if you want to talk more and get to know eachother 🫶🏽 us mommas got to stay together 💕
