have started to make themselves scarce? Ever since DH and I announced we were expecting my friends that are not pregnant/don't already have children have slowly exited stage left. It kinda sucks actually, as one of them in particular has been one of my closest friends since we were in diapers. Every time I get on facebook I see that she is planning on hanging out and partying with her new non-preggo friends. I swear she has done more partying since I got my positive than she ever with me our entire friendship!

She's not the only one either, it has just been more obvious with her as her and her husband were our closest 'couple friends.' We have only seen them once or twice since we told them back in July...she is always saying she's so busy with classes and work yet she goes out on Thursday nights and they go out together on Saturday nights...which was more than they ever have.

lol...maybe it's just me missing that friendship, but I get jealous every couple days when she updates her facebook about how much fun she is having with her new friends...dancing, partying, etc. I don't miss the drinking much...we never really went out to bars with this couple, but we would find other things to do that we all had fun doing...movies, playing cards, shopping, etc.

Anyone else noticing a distancing from their friends? I keep wondering if she just doesn't know how to talk to me now that I am pregnant...like I have turned into a stranger or something. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I am the first in our circle of friends to get pregnant, so no one knows how to handle it...

Who knows, but I was really hoping she would be a part of my little girl's life, as she has always been a part of mine. Now I am afraid she is just going to slowly fade out of my life before my baby even gets here... :neutral:

Maybe she will show more interest when it gets closer to the due date... :shrug:
