Since I’ve had my wee man and he’s turning 11 months old this month and all my other friends had their babies as well it’s like everyone went their different paths/ways and it’s like your left on your own and am I the only one that’s finding it so difficult to make friends?…

You are not the only one , my son just turned 11 and I am in the same position unfortunately. I go to the park with him and I see other mums together. It makes me feel really sad.

With my 1st I made a big group of friends on here and we met up all the time but thats kinda drifted off since nursery and school starting but with my 2nd I've not made any friends! Where are you based?

I would recommend going to local activities that your council creates for babies or also going to the library where they also do free things. I need to do these things for myself but haven’t managed to go yet . Also before I was scared of my baby getting something from other babies now he’s bigger will try to take him. I also saw there are these swimming classes for babies , it’s called water babies. But it is costly :/ so I still haven’t gotten into it yet. But I think it would be a great way as well. I hope it works out for the both of us 🥹🤞🏼

I've never had many friends my whole life but since having a baby I finally have a little circle. go to as many baby groups as you can! you said there's nothing for babies near you but a quick Google came up with tons of groups. message your friends with babies, even if they reply weeks later they're still there lol we are all in the same busy busy boat!
