anti social

Anyone else just want to be alone mostly? I don't want to hardly talk to anyone because I don't want opinions on anything.

I am around people all day, literally, at work so the last thing I want to do when I have time is socialize. I need to regroup and recharge, but then I've always been that way. Now that I'm pregnant, it's a combo of needing to recharge and also just because I feel out of place because there's so much that I can't do especially now that it's summer. My hubby and I, and our friends, we're big into social drinking, they wanna do amusement parks this year, and other things that are big no no's for pregnant women. So me it's more like it's unfair and teasing to me be around that, but unable to enjoy any of it. That could just be me, and maybe I'm being a little selfish, but I prefer just staying home and letting my hubby go enjoy himself.

I almost thought I was abnormal. I dread social gatherings now especially cos I have to dress up. I just wanna stay home and watch shows on Netflix .

I like to be alone so i can enjoy the peace & quiet while i can. Sitting down or laying down doing nothing but watching tv & eating snacks is a good afternoon to me.

Yup! My family and friends keep asking what's wrong with me. Nothings wrong, I just don't want to socialize. I want to play with my son and be at home. I don't like talking nonstop about being pregnant. Maybe it's because this isn't my first time, and don't get me wrong I'm excited. But I am so done talking about how far along I am, can I feel the baby move, do I plan to breastfeed again, what is her nursery going to look like. The most irritating thing is everyone for some reason thinks when I have her I'm going to send my 3 year old to someone's house for a week. I don't know if it's a common thing to send your other kids away after you give birth, but it's the last thing I want. I just want my kids and husband all home and together.

I have my days or weeks that's for sure. I love my husband so much. But there are times that i beg him to go surfing all day so i can just have the couch to myself and watch Grey's anatomy all day. I also don't like being around people because that means i Prolly have to be dressed, lol. I had a really emotional day and my mom wouldn't stop calling me to check on me. I finally told her that i really just wanted nothing more then to be in bed and alone all day and cry if i wanted to cry. HORMONES!

I've only wanted to be around my husband. That's all I want. We've got a 6 year old, my step daughter, and I love her to death, she's definitely "mine", but I really just want only my husband around and no one else. I'm really even Ok with my baby staying put a little longer so I can get more time with just him. Kinda makes me feel guilty but...

Yup, through most of my pregnancy I've wanted to be by myself and I get irritated with the advice that is so forcefully shared! I guess people are just trying to be helpful so I do smile politely and try to change the conversation. It's exhausting!
