I feel so lonely and like i dont have any friends

i am a SAHM ( which i love most of the time) but lately i feel trapped in my home :/ i wish i had more ppl to talk too...

I feel exactly the same way. I cant really relate to anyone my age now unless they have a baby. And older mums tend to look down on me because im a young mum

That's how i feel! When I do talk to my old friends they are talking about partys and boys, and other stuff and I talk about my baby( needless to say the convos end pretty quickly) and older moms looking down on you is why its hard for me to find a mommy and me group :/

Yeah, i hate when people judge me and look down on me. My age doesnt impair my parenting..
Im looking for a toddler group for me and LO. But cant find many where i live, and am a little hesitant to go to any incase they are all judgemental. Im 20 btw but have a two year old so was pregnant when i was 17 and had him when i was 18. He is a big two year old though. And im a small 20 year old and look about 14. So the looks i get are horrible

finding groups is hard i went to one near me and NOBODY talked to me at all! was shocked but i got my NCT girls who are all 'older mothers' and we get on great they are a lifesaver when it comes to talking babies or popping out for a coffee or something im so lucky to have them

Try to meet other parents, get out to groups/activities, invite your friends around. Reach out to people you know casually that have kids- chances are they feel the same way at times!

I find it hard to meet people at groups, but just being around other people can go quite a way
