Changing friendships
This is sort of a vent/thought/question, as a new mom. My husband and I got married a little over a year ago, and got pregnant just a few months into marriage. We were the first of our closest friends on both sides to get married, and the first to have a baby. And while his friends still call to hang out, watch the game, go golfing or any other "guy things", I realize that most of my friends stopped calling and returning my text messages. After the initial congratulations, people just stopped communicating with me. It's like, as a mom, I was no longer interesting anymore. And while these ladies were once friends with me, they just didn't want to be friends with my baby. Meanwhile, here I am still trying to stay current on their lives, and be supportive of their big moments. Still they don't ask about me or my life, they just assume it's something they don't want to hear I suppose. Well it sucks!!! Anyone else going thru this? How have you coped? I've started joining mommy and me groups, getting in touch with acquaintances who already have kids....but a part of me is sad that my friends just couldn't grow with me.
