[scaredmum2be]

I know people have there own friends you know im going to sound sad an pathetic now lol.
With my sister she has a friend that shes often shes 24 there kids go to school together an her friends live a few mins down the road an well basically she has a good friend to speak to.

Where as me i have no one really i mean a proper good friend who i can go an see with LO or spend time with a friend a drink with sometime my lo is 5 months old.
My best mate well used to be she lives miles away and we dont really talk now. Internet friends r not like with me properly its nice to know ive got friends on line even if i dont know them properly lol.
Im going to playgroup with LO & my mum tmos so hoping to meet friends there and get used to a few people but what if i dont ill prob be a proper loser lol.

Im not sure why i wrote this post lol. tryin to make sense of it myself lol x

lol bless you, i think friends are important or you start feeling lonely and driving yourself loopy! im worried about friends after ive had the baby because a lot of them kinda ditched me whilst me being pregnant. so annoying. no reason why you cant have a friend like your sister! i am lucky enough to have 2 people the same age as me that ive known a little while both due after me like one month after! so i am hoping to socialise with them and we can all 3 go to playgroup together. dont realy know if that was a reply or not lol x

I moved during my pregnancy and didnt really have any friends properly, like you say, you kind of know people but not that you can just hang out with.

I started going to groups when LO was about 8 weeks old and Ive made 2 friends as well as getting on with everyone. One friend text me one day cos we didnt go to group and just wanted to make sure Im ok. she eneded up suggesting we had a coffee and I invited her round. Shes been here with her LO a few times and Ive gone round hers too. Its nice cos her LO is a few months older than mine, so she has loads of advice about weaning etc...

Definately recommend going to the groups, you'll find a lot of people are the same as you, cos when you have a baby, you do loose touch a bit with your non baby friends, so just remember that theyre all looking to meet other mums too. Just be brave and suggest having a coffee sometime if youve got chatting to someone. Good luck!

Lol. All my school friendd have had kids an moved on an with there own life but i was in foster care back then am moved homes quite abit an never really had much contact. I am lonely cos havent got a girlie friend to connect with if u no wat i mean. OH drives me nuts as it is lol. An i do the baby stuff on me own but it would just be nice to have someone to talk to an go out to the park an things like that. I feel abnormal lol x

 

[scaredmum2be]

I feel the same way hun. We live in London and don't know anyone other than work people (we work together, so it's not a lot, and not many our age.) Even if we manage to finally move closer to his friends, it's not quite the same as having my own... Hoping the girls I met a NCT classes will be a good group outside the classes!

I would love a friend that isnt a gossip an knows what im talking about. cos most people on my estate r gossips an nut jobs lol.
I dont really go to any classes dont get time with LO but me mums draggin me up in the morning to go to home group. Because ive not been out for that long to places im abit shy really now all i seem to talk about is babies " i never thought id be talking about babies quite often lol" x

Oh I was the same moving a lot when I was young. I feel like my friends are all scattered in different places. Your mum is def right to drag you to baby group. I talk about the baby all the time, hes pretty much the only thing in my life at the mo. My friends always talk about dating and parties etc.. when we meet up to catch up and then they turn around and ask me whats new with me and I can never think of anything except baby stuff!!

Its good meeting friends in baby groups cos they always want to talk about babies too!

Its so scary feeling shy, but remind yourself that the first time is the hardest. I forced myself to go to the groups and now I really look forward to them but I dreaded them at first!

 

[scaredmum2be]

i cant really enjoy my days with LO very well because everyone tries to take over with certain things people have taken over an theres not much i can do bout it an hes my only child so i find it hard to do as i please with him. Ive told people hes my baby etc but stil they dont listen lol.
The only thing i speak to OH bout is Lil man aint i sad lol. but then again babies is much better talked bout that clubbin sometimes. I mostly here people saying they had a good night now there getting hammered out there face lol. x

I found my self getting bored when o/h was at work so started looking for play groups in my area I now go Mondays Wednesdays and Fridays and it just breaks my wk up a little and I have made loads of friends going and we even had xmas party's etc.
Most of my friends work in the wk so I had to go out and find myself some stay at home mums lol
and dont worry my very best friend is my cousin my o/h says I cant count her lol

[midnight]

im the same dont have anyone that i could meet in town for a coffee or anything like that

 

[polo_princess]

I have a teeny tiny handful of friends who i can go for coffee, playdates, out on the town with, barely enough to count on one hand.

Ive never been one for having lots of friends, i prefer a select few and then a lot of acquaintances
