Feeling lonely

Anyone else starting to feel lonely! I don’t have any mum friends and only moved to the area 2 weeks before falling pregnant. The friends I had made haven’t bothered with my little boy since he’s been born and don’t really have a good family relationship.I tried going to the marks and Spencer’s morning yesterday and there just wasn’t anyone there.

so struggling too !! makes it worse that i’m a young mum so i feel more judged

I get that completely. I just find any time I go anywhere to make friends people are already in groups and then I’m a bit on the outside and not really confident enough to start a conversation.

Have you joined any baby groups? I was very much the same as you with my eldest I didn’t have a single local friend. We did tots play baby development classes and those mums are now some of my closest friends! We also did baby sensory but it wasn’t as easy to socialise through these I also now run our local twins group and have made some more friends through this

You could try some baby classes or some local baby groups? Some churches host them and they are only a few £?

I’m on the wait list for a few baby groups and going to a baby sensory morning at the local soft play I don’t drive so limited to what groups I can actually get to !

Where about do you live?x

I’m in Worcester x

Definitely feel the loneliness! Days are really long when my other half is out of the house by 8.30 and sometimes not back til around/after 6. I do get out for walks and do a sensory class on a Thursday, see my mum on a Monday so do try to keep busy but it’s so hard some days with no human interaction!
