Anyone Else Have IRL Pregnant Friends?

lalala2004 · September 2015

I'm always thinking about who my baby's friends are going to be based on who else at my church or work is pregnant or TTC.

A girl from my church small group just announced on Facebook yesterday that she's due in April! I'm so excited and itching to tell her that our babies will only be a month apart.

Anyone else have pregnant friends they get to go through this with in "real life"?

mojomama6 · September 2015

Yes, but they're all either several months ahead of me, or also not sharing yet.
I really really hope that at least one of my sisters is also just not sharing yet. One has been trying, and one I think has been secretly hoping for an oops.

My step sister is pregnant and due in October

I'm super excited that my kidlet will have a cousin close in age.

A friend I used to ride horses with is also pregnant and, I believe, due in October as well. She lives only a couple of minutes away. I haven't told her that I'm pregnant yet, but I'm hoping play dates will happen

I have a close friend who's due in October with baby #2, so they will be 7 months apart. Our first babies are 5 months apart, so we are pretty excited that we are both pregnant again at the same time. My sister-in-law is due in March with her first, so they will all grow up together.

I have two friends who are pregnant now--They're both in early second trimester. I want to tell them I'm joining them so badly! Guess I'll have to wait till Oct.

I have a group of friends I met through my hospital's childbirth education class so we all had our firsts within a month of each other. Now, I am the third to be pregnant with a second! One is due in November, another in February, me and I suspect another might be due in May as well but just hasn't spilled the beans yet!

yogahh · September 2015

Unfortunately not. I'm joining a prenatal yoga class next week though so hoping to meet some other moms to be.

allishally13 · September 2015

I have one friend who is due in December, and my sister is also considering trying for more soon (she already has bg twins that are about 1.5 yrs old).

vinerie · September 2015

NO! That is my biggest problem!! None of my close IRL friends are pregnant nor do they want to be. Sure, I know some folks with kids, but I generally hang out with a fabulous group of childless people. (This tends to happen when you reach our age with no kids). I'm actually really nervous about telling everyone. And I am looking forward to connecting with some other moms in the area. We recently left the city for the 'burbs and there are a lot of ladies out here with kids; hopefully I can become friends with them. I feel like I am a kid at a new school in that regard!

kmalls · September 2015

Yes! My BFF is due in November so the kidlets will be 6 months apart. My college BFF (who I unfortunately don't see all that often as she lives 1,500 miles away) has the exact same due date and we are so excited! Both kid #2 for us.

ceeesprof · September 2015

One of my best friends from church is due any day now. That's as close as it gets, unfortunately!

cortney626 · September 2015

One of my close friends is due a week or two before me. Her and I were pregnant together 8 years ago (our kids are 2 months apart). Will be fun to go through it again together.

livelaughlove1127 · September 2015

I do! I have one friend and she's due in October with a baby girl. And my other friend is due in January with a baby boy

kbrands7 · September 2015

Yes! My cousin/one of my best friends is due in March I'm so excited to have a baby buddy this time around.

snmhxf · September 2015

I am president of our local MOMS Club (it's an international group, look it up!! ) my Vp is due in early Jan. Her husband also works with my husband and her 2nd and my 1st are about 6 months apart only mine is older

bellamamma23 · September 2015

Yes! My oldest friend from elementary school is due with her first in October. 3 other friends all had girls in May, so lots of kids around for DD and now baby #2.

YankeeUK · September 2015

Yes!! Literally the day after I had my PPT my best friend (since I was 4) just the next day told me she was pregnant. And the day after that, another close friend came back with a PPT after her 2nd round of IVF. A few days later, a girl I sit next to at work. Honestly, must be something in the air!

DutchLucyLu · September 2015

I -suspect- one of my IRL friends is also pregnant and only one week ahead of me but we're both keeping it quiet. DH is all, "we should invite them over when you're ten weeks so we'll beat them to it to announce". Not sure if we'll really do that, though. He's also joked about arranging a marriage between the two LOs. Definitely not really doing that. :P

misst45 · September 2015

Both a co-worker and my sister-in-law are due a month before me. It is cool to experience this pregnancy with two people at the same time.

JoyTap · September 2015

Yep! A good friend of mine just told my husband and I that she's pregnant. Our due dates are within a week of each other.

gooberdoofus95 · September 2015

My friend is due in March so there will be a 2 month difference. They was also a 2 month difference between my DD2 and her DS last year! I also have many friends that are pregnant. (4 others)

BabyBerriesNCream · September 2015

Today is actually my sisters due date. She will be induced on Friday since the baby has not come yet. So far, she will be the only one that I will be able to talk to that is in within a year of my due date.

KLG8806 · September 2015

One of my oldest friends is due in December so Im excited our kids will be close in age! And I literally just found out one of my besties is due about 10 days after me!!! I had been holding out on telling her until I had my sono... but she flat out asked me! We both came clean to each other tonight!!!

chottomotto · September 2015

My SIL is due in November, my college BFF is due in December, and my neighbor friend is due in January.

roodford · September 2015

No, unfortunately not. I'm hoping to figure out how to connect with some other moms in LA. My SIL and brother are trying for #2, but they live in London

Copernicus08 · September 2015

Yes! It's funny because a friend of mine who was pregnant with me last time just announced that she's 12 weeks pregnant with #2 the day after I got my BFP!

Kewlchiky · September 2015

There's always a baby boom in my small town circle so many friends expecting. Also cousin and midwife! Hoping the midwife is back to work by the time this one comes! She delivered my 2 boys and I can't imagine anyone else being there for this one.

balamama · September 2015

None of my IRL friends are expecting though one of my good friends has a 1 year old and a 3 year old so at least I can talk to her about pregnancy/babies and she won't get sick of it

Once we announce I'll also be looking for local (Philadelphia) KU friends. Maybe through prenatal yoga?

skiingstark · September 2015

I have IRL who are or were recently pregnant the problem is though they all live on the east coast where I am from and I am in CO

So I have no peeps here where I live, only through facebook.

Par13 · September 2015

A co-worker of mine is due in late-December. I also just heard that a friend is expecting but hasn't announced yet so I'm not sure of her due date.

helleebellee · September 2015

Sadly, no. All of my IRL friends are much older than me and done having kids.

jessluca · September 2015

My SIL just had my nephew less than two months ago. One of my friends is having twin boys at the end of the month and another one of my friends is having a boy in November. I'm not aware of anyone who is around my due date IRL though.
