Feel like ive found out who my real friends are.

Since I've got pregnant, I literally feel like I'm on my own. I have a friend who im in regular contact with (she had a baby shortly after I got pregnant) but the ones who I live near and have went out of my way to help with Sh*tty situations of their own... Appear to be no where to be found. I cant help but feel complete let down and shoved aside. One of them has two kids herself but when she suffered post natal depression and when she got bullied at work and then broke her ankle, I was there almost every day trying to keep her chin up and give her support. Now its my turn and she literally asked me several times asking what happened us, why we werent so close. Tbh I got fed up running after her. Evrery time I said what it was I basically got told "thats what happens when you have kids". So frustrating!!!
Maybe its just me overthinking, but im just so fed up!?!?!

I definitely feel so the same way but I don't let it bother me or stress me out , because I could care less honestly , its about my baby and I now !

A lot of people are selffish and you really don't know until you have a child. It is good to have friend or girl time though, so maybe try to find a mom group or other women your age that are moms. I lost most of mh friends since I got pregnant at 18 but now im 20 and pregnant with number 2 and couldn't be happier... those friends I lost aren't doing anything good with their lives and although I wish them the best, its best that they showed me their true colors at some point in my early life.

Since being pregnant my best frienf hasn't spoken to me, she hasn't even congratulated me.

I've kinda been feelin like this for some time. As long as I was prepared to do the running, then I had friends. This is what really bugs me.
My friend who had the baby lives in Scotland. We talk more than the ones who only live a few miles away.
Just feel like the more you do for someone, the less its remembered.

When I got pregnant at 24 I lost a lot of friends. They didn't want to hang out anymore or go and do anything. When my daughter was born I felt completely alone. Now I'm pregnant with baby 2 and I'm 30 yrs old and feel the same. I feel like since I have been pregnant I am treated different. I'm the same person but with kids.

I have definitely noticed certain people fall back since I've been pregnant. It's a shame but I figure I'm better off without them. :-(

I know how you feel. When I found out I was pregnant I was happy because my boyfriend and I had been trying for awhile. Now my baby boy is 5 days old. Friends come and go but look where you have the support and forget about the others. The last thing you want is to stress yourself out
