I feel lonely

Since my mom today enlighted me that I have no friends,since I got my baby, I feel lonely.
I don't know if I'm being dramatic, but in the past year and half I tried not to think about it, and now the problem became so real in my mind.
My two best friends( since 2010) never really shown interest on the baby or never understood coming home after work tired, to clean the house + cooking + the baby.
I tried to see their point of view, but the only thing I was asking for was a little support in a very delicate moment of my life.

I hope one day I'll find some friends to be there for each other..

Who's living the same experience?

I think it’s very difficult to stay friends when you are on the very different stages in life, especially if you have financial differences. People who keep their friends throughout are truly blessed. It’s not me so I understand.
Do you have a partner OP? And how old is your child?

Join groups with people at the same stage in life as you.

Sort of. My friends all had kids young so they’re all getting their baby free lives back with their youngest being at school and their oldest being adults - some of them having kids themselves. My youngest is 13 weeks so while they’re having nights out I’m on the night feeds. We used to do this together. I feel really awkward with some of the other new mums with young babies being my friends kids. Feeling really old.
