Just need to vent. Took DD for visit to "big school" today. She loved it and ran off to play. I stood there alone. It seemed everyone else knew each other, so many of them had elder siblings at the school or younger siblings of similar ages. I'm not the kind of person who can just start a conversation with a stranger, and couldn't join the groups. Also being in an affluent area (though we're not) they had that "super confident mummy" look and I felt like a complete outsider. I know it's stupid but I nearly cried this evening. Will it get any better once DD is at school properly? Stressed enough with other preparations without this.
