:(

Hey, does anyone else find mat leave really lonely? Now my baby's not newborn anymore none of my friends seem interested in seeing us. I've been to baby groups and I find people just keep themselves to themselves. I've tried meeting up with others off here to no avail except one lovely girl who I'm good friends with now. It's all just a bit sad!

This is exactly how I feel! Literally every part of it (apart from the meeting people off of here). I always find that people on here seem keen to arrange to meet up and then cancel or never actually turn up. I go back to work in a couple of months and just feel like I’ve not made any friends that have a baby too xxx

I am in the same boat. All of sudden most the friends seems to be extra busy . I have recently joined the group to meet other mothers n have some meet up but haven’t meet anyone yet . 🥺

@Aimee yes! Too many times I've been cancelled on. I don't know if it's the uncertainty of meeting someone they've not met before or what but it's very disheartening and annoying! I'm glad I'm not alone but it's equally as sad that it's not just me xx

@Pooja sorry to hear you feel the same too! Hopefully you'll catch someone close by who does want to, there definitely are some on here who actually do what friendships 🫶🏼

I'm on baby number 2 here and have even less friends than I did before. I go to one baby group where I know another mum as our older children go to school together but her daughter is a year older than mine so I have no friends with babies the same age and it definitely sucks x
