How I feel...

Both my friends have babies and I’m glad because I love babies. However sometimes I feel left out because they always ask each other to watch each other’s kids but never me. I mean maybe I haven’t proven myself a babysitter but it would still feel nice just to be asked.. sometimes they even make plans to hang, have each other’s kids play together and go shopping and I wasn’t invited. I try not to make a big deal out of it but sometimes it does make me sad. I guess I need more friends without kids..

I wouldn’t take offense to it. Being a mom, I tend to hang with other moms. They understand things more than those without kids.

Do they know you would like to step up and help babysit and do things? For me personally, I don’t ask ones without moms to babysit usually unless they tell me they want to because I feel like I’m burdening them. It’s worth talking to them.

Maybe they feel like you don’t want to be bothered. As parents, we hate feeling like we’ve burdened someone with our children. If you offer, they may let you.

Have you offered yourself to babysit?
