Hi everyone,
I'm in a SAHM with a 19 mo who has struggled to make mum friends.
We had a difficult start and I must admit I stayed home and held onto him for a few months! but I thought we would make friends when we were ready. We did meet a lovely lady who I am still in touch with but she has moved away. Apart from that I have found the mum community a bit closed and it's hard to get in! There are lots of groups and couples trotting round and I have chatted away and swapped numbers with many women, but feel a bit rebuffed. If I try to organise something, I am ignored or see them once and then see them with other friends having not been invited. It makes me sad for my lovely little boy.
Did I miss out by not being around early enough? Or am I missing a trick? Am I a big weirdo? (Possibly) not trendy enough?
Would love to hear from other mums who had the same experiences. Or to receive any advice!
Ta.
