Hi all,
I'm new to mumsnet and I've joined for a bit of advice and in the hopes that I'm not alone in my feelings.
I'm a sahm to 2 children (6 months and 2years) we're always very busy going to groups and days out but I can't help feeling so lonely. I have a partner but he's self employed so works 6/7 days a week and sometimes his evenings are taken up looking at other work or paperwork so it's me and the kids on our own most days. I meet other mums at the groups who I say hello to when I pass them in the street but in 2 years of going to the same groups it hasn't progressed from a passing hello. I understand this may be partly down to my shyness but I feel like I keep putting myself out there and getting nowhere. The few mummy friends I do have are all back at work so I can go weeks without seeing them. I love being a sahm but some days I can go all day without talking/seeing another adult and it's hard. Any advice would be really appreciated or knowing I'm not the only one feeling this way? Xx
