OMG I was thinking the same thing. My college friends are ghost. The only friend I have left is my best friend who already has a child and one on the way just like me. It's Okay.  Who needs them.

Well I don't have any friends now that I'm pregnant and they all had kids before me but I never turn my back on them. But I say its for the best God show you things in different ways. And my pregnancy has open my eyes up a lot. Just keep pushing and doing what's right for your LO.

I don't think it's really because they think less of us. I think it's because they don't understand all the responsibilities it takes being a mom. They feel like we change because we can't do the things we used to. It's us going our separate ways. We grow up and they still have time to goof off.

Some do it to give space to your new changing life, especially the ones that aren't already parents.
Some are just not real friends and they rather leave your friendship behind instead of changing their lifestyles or activities when they're around you because spending time with you isn't important enough, when they can just replace you with another friend who can still do ALL the "fun" stuff.
Don't waste your time thinking about them, enjoy time with the ones who did stick around :)

Cause they werent friends to begin with. The friends I had were pretty much all single and get drunk everynight and party. But there comes a time when you gotta take yourself out of the picture and grow up. Im just saying in general

Becuz they are not real friends if u ask me... a real friend wouldn't judge u or think u r less then them becuz ur having a baby and cant party anymore. I lost all my friends except my best friend of 12 yrs. Her life is complete opposite.  No kids. Single.  Becoming a dentist. Lives with her mom. Getting her bachelor's and all we say to each other is "she is living the life before I get to". I would be lost without her.
