Baby acknowledge

I’m embarrassed to even be writing this. I have always felt that my family and friends were great. That was. Until I moved out of state. Now we’re pregnant and a couple months away from having our little one.

This isn’t our first baby but no one and I mean no one in my family or friends has asked if we even have a registry, really asks how we’re doing, or bothered to acknowledge anything about this baby. It’s not even about the gifts. It’s more about the fact that I feel so lonely and like this pregnancy is just “whatever”. I even saw my sister at a friends baby shower recently whos due around the same time as me. I guess I just am not that person when the roles are reversed and am feeling hormonal, emotional and isolated. As if covid hasn’t done enough of that in the past couple years. My own mom has barely acknowledged this baby and I just cannot imagine treating my own children this way.

Has anyone else felt this way or gone through this? Did you just hold it in and get over it? I just feel my resentment building and I hate that feeling.
