Old Friends-Making New Friends

Is anyone else feeling like they have some kind of disease now that thier pregnant? My friends have dropped me like I have mad cow disease! No one wants to hang out with me, and have replaced me with new friends! I dont know how to deal with it and it has hurt my feelings.

Anyone from the Jefferson County region?

    I'm in Jeff Co. Are you sure it isn't just the craziness of the holiday season that is making it seem this way. How far along are you? Maybe they just need an adjustment time? My friends and I would go out drinking and to the casinos a lot. Then when I found out there were a few weeks where we didn't do too much because I couldn't do what we used to. We have been doing a lot of dinner and movie nights lately with some holiday light seeing thrown in. Make suggestions of things you can do because they just might not have a clue what that is.

    I grew up in the JeffCO area and yes I think when you are pregnant friends will come and go. Some friends may have a hard time knowing what you are going through, and they may feel left out as well. You will find that sometimes it is hard to stay close friends with your friends if they do not have children yet. It is easier to do things with friends with similar lives. Your friends will most likely come around, just give them time to adgust, and don't feel like you shouldn't let them know this is how you are feeling. They need to know how you feel because they cannot read your mind, and they may be feeling just like you.
