Dont get me wrong, I have friends, family, a partner, and literally another person inside of me, I'm considered lucky. But this experience is still so lonely, I cant tell if its just hormones or I'm actually annoying others by talking about pregnancy/baby too much.

One thing I have noticed it’s motherhood is lonely. Long story short. Me my husband and my daughter live with my parents. I’m also 5 months pregnant. I’m always around people but it’s like you still feel lonely in a crowded room. It could be me I do have a history of depression.

No it’s not just you, I think everyone face it. Maybe some days are more difficult than others. But you have to ignore that thought and keep yourself busy by doing what you like or love. It’s our body who is exhausted or tired and makes us feel sad or lonely.

It’s not you, I too am expecting and feel lonely. I feel a massive weight to prepare things alone often times because my husband doesn’t seem very interested in helping despite asking. I don’t have many friends or family close by so many days are a struggle.

It’s not just you, I feel it as well. I used to love exploring little restaurants or events in the city. But when I got pregnant I became super sensitive to smells (perfumes, smoking, vape, traffic etc.). I don’t like going to places with a lot of people anymore, and the bumps on the car rides gets pretty uncomfortable even in the second trimester. The few times I get lunch with my girlfriends I just had a bit of a hard time enjoining the same activities as them.
