I pretty much lost a lot of friends whilst pregnant with my son. They didnt make much of an effort and I stopped trying when I came closer to my due date. I wanted to meet up with a few friends last time as an unofficial baby shower and generally just to celebrate and catch up. I only had two of my friends see me before and after baby arrived. And they both lived a few hours away in London. Since having my son and the distance we just didnt talk very much. All had busy lives. But at the same time when I tried to make an effort by catching up via messaging I struggled to keep much of a conversation going!
I fell out with my best friend last year, she was really bringing me down mentally. As well as her attitude changing dramatically when she got back with her ex and I just felt the friendship was becoming quite toxic.
I also at the same time drew a line with one of my oldest friends as she was close with her, and she always seemed to cancel plans with me to see her.
I have one friend who again lives further away who I keep in touch via message. I havent seen her for years apart from her wedding last year.
Otherwise I dont gave a single friend I can meet with. I cant afford to drive hours away.
I just feel so lonely and cant even share my news with anyone else but family.. because no one else would really care.
Id love to do a gender reveal, Id love for it to be a surprise for me too and find out there n then.But whats the point? I see everyone else who has close friends and they have baby showers and catch up with a coffee every other week etc and I just dont have that... its getting me quite down especially now Im pregnant again.
Ive always tried to make an effort and arrange to see people, I always message first.. otherwise if I didnt message no one would message me.
