Just deleted what I wrote as I don't want to put myself.
In cases when you are the first/as yet only member of a friendship group to have kids (others don't have kids on their radar at all yet) there's a certain degree of alienation that happens.
I try to make as much effort to come to things as I can but obviously it's tricky to do nights out with hotels, spa days etc with a young family.
Their interest in my DC has also dwindled over the years and I find it a bit hurtful but st the end of the day they are the ones missing out.
I've suggested daytime things so that I can see them with the kids but they don't seem keen on the idea.
Obviously I do see it from their point of view, they have no obligation to be in my DC life and it just seems like we have lost a lot of common ground and there's resentments on both sides.
Is that it then? I know it's a fairly common theme for friends to lose interest but have people managed to maintain these friendships?

To ask if anybody is still good friends with pre baby friends who showed little interest in kids
