I have a 12 week old DS and a very nice NCT group. We normally meet every Tuesday for coffee
Now that the babies are a bit older, we have started to do more things together - we've just done a music class thing. We also go out for walks etc. as we meet quite a few times a week, it's quite relaxed if you can't make a meet up etc.
Soooo... We met today for coffee and not all of us were there, as usual. Three if us were left at the end and agreed to go out for a walk. The other two asked me if we should email the others and I said yes. I had to pop out to the car and when I came back, they were saying we should not bother and just have a 'select" group etc
I feel really uncomfortable about this. I would hate there to be any kind of feeling that we're leaving other out. I really want to try and bring DS up to include everyone if possible and I would hate to think that the others in the group feel like we're branching off
I think my feelings may be slightly coloured by hormones and the fact that most of the rest of the group are going to a baby swimming class. This was arranged at a coffee meet up that I couldn't make. However, I only knew about it because there's been lots of "see you next Thursday at swimming. Oooh we were so lucky to get on the course and it all sold out now." I'm not terribly bothered as I don't want to take DS til he's 6 months but I do feel bit excluded when they're all talking about what applies they'll need for it. I feel a bit sad for DS which is nuts as he obviously couldn't care less but it made me feel a bit like they didn't want us to come
I'm taking DS to another class and made sure I said to everyone by email etc and funnily enough most if them want to come.
I don't know if this is just the first in a long line of things like this - welcome to parenthood! I do also know that there will certainly be times thatbDS doesn't get invited to parties etc and I'm totally fine with that etc. However, in a group where everyone ostensibly gets on, AIBU to want invites to be open to all?
