Hello supermoms, first time mom-to-be here on my 2nd trimester. I know that I am reading alot how your relationships/friendships change once you become a mom.
But just recently, my bestfriend/future sis-in-law needed some time away from me but she didn’t really give me a heads up and just distanced herself. I had to confront her and she said that she realized alot of things through therapy, what works best for her in the moment and I asked her if one of those realizations was, are we not the best for her at the moment and she answered.. “honestly, yes.”
And our conversation just really went sideways, I just could’nt stop thinking about this for a month now…
Anybody had experience or experiencing this right now?

Yes. But I’m
On the other end of this. I’ve come to some realizations since having my kiddos about certain people in my life. Not how they are on the moment, but their track record. It’s interesting having these thoughts of clarity

Hi! I’ve definitely experienced this before! As sad as it is to say the way I look at it as, if someone is not supporting you in your time of need, especially during your pregnancy where you feel very vulnerable and alone, a lot of the times then you don’t need them in your life. I’ve had family and some of my closest friends distance themselves from me and I have distance myself from them and sometimes as we get older, we just grow apart. A lot of of the times with no explanation or an explanation just like you gave it makes it seem like you did something wrong. Hun I am here to tell you, you did absolutely nothing wrong. Sometimes people wanna blame other people for their own issues they have going on and sometimes people think it’s best to distance themselves from family or friends to fix whatever is going on within themselves. keep your head up and honestly think of this: you always learn who is really important in your life and who is not when you’re pregnant!
