Hermit time

Has anyone else been feeling really antisocial lately? I've always been introverted but this has just been a whole new level for me. I feel like a jerk but I just have no desire to leave the house or to interact with anyone besides my husband or my cat. I just want to hibernate until this baby comes 😭

I’m starting to get there. Unfortunately, I still need to go to the office for work and I still have one more orchestra concert to play but then the social calendar is closed. It’s just so much effort to get out!

Yes! People don't get it, just getting in and out of the car is a TOUGH one for me, and when we go out we tend to go to multiple places and I prefer to be more dressed up so I at least don't LOOK like a hermit xD but it's so much effort and the boy is getting so big and he's so active and I just have no energy, I just want to stay home and rest xD Doesn't help that my baby shower is on the 18th so I've still got 2 more weeks to go and the shower is being held two hours away from where we live 😭 long car rides are TOUGH

I feel like maybe this is a natural feeling leading up to giving birth. Like our bodies/minds are prepping. I’m definitely starting to feel the need to rest more/have more quiet, away from people.

Yes but not too different from my norm 😂

Yes! I have felt like this a lot of my pregnancy. Which is weird bc I think pregnancy is a very isolating experience but it’s also a choice bc I feel like no one fully understands me and how I feel. I’ve also had a hard time being around family and in laws bc it’s never about how I’m feeling or doing — it’s about “how’s the baby?!”. I just feel forgotten about so it makes me not want to be around people besides my husband. It’s definitely one of the weirdest experiences and feelings I’ve ever dealt with.
