How have mums and mums to be coped with no family close or friends?

Question

I can't wait to have a baby with my hubby but I have no friends to talk too and my family live in Malta and his in Scotland so have no one close for worse case if you know what I mean. How has anyone in this situation coped? It's not putting me off having a baby just scared of being on my own, well apart from having hubby here :)

Answer

My husbands in the military so we live out of state from our family (10 hours away). We moved here recently so we don't know anyone and my husband is due to be gone the whole month of August for training and that's when I'm due. I'm already considered high risk so I'm extremely nervous!

Answer

My husband is in the army. I moved 18 hours away and have been here during my whole pregnancy. We recently found out that we will be stationed in Germany for 3 years. I mean...I am so excited for our life together, but it is slightly heartbreaking not having any friends or family around during this time.

Answer

I'm 1500 miles away from all my friends all I have is my husband

Answer

Me and my fiancé and 11 month son have recently moved to the Czech Republic,
​He has family in Slovakia and England and I have family in scotland and England. I do a 'weekly update' email with photos and videos for the family and we do regular video chats too and I think actually we talk more to our family now then we did before!

Answer

It's rough. I moved states just before conceiving and the person I thought was my best friend "dumped" me shortly after I got my positive. I've relied really heavily on my husband, but I also reached out to my doctors offices councilor to find ways to cope with the loneliness and the anxiety of not having anyone to talk to. If anything, I would just go in there and we would review my week and how things are, and I would feel better. See if maybe your office has some kind of councilor or social worker that you can reach out to.
