@allisonkuch: you dont know until you know. ive had friends who have had babies & i never knew how appreciated it is to just show up. the morning coffee drop offs, the “hey how are you doing” check in texts, coming over & doing a load of laundry. I feel guilty for the friends i didnt show up for

I’ve struggled with feeling like an inconvenience my entire life. I’ve never felt more lonely than I have postpartum.

my best friend had her baby & i wasn’t there for her at all. i got pregnant the next year & she was there for me more than anyone. “you don’t know how to be there for someone unless you go through it”

I snuck into my friend's house while she was at her baby's dr. appointment. I cleaned her house then left. She guessed it was me and called me crying.

Ugh, this is unfair. If my friend ever asked me to come over, I’d be there. I would never just show up at someone’s house. I feel like that would not be appreciated.

Dude wth do we do bc I see videos being mad at ppl for asking to come see the baby too early or nagging or offering help without being asked!? Like what do we do for friends that are new parents😭

Lost many friends after having a baby. One day when they are in my shoes they’ll understand.

Could scream this from the rooftops. It’s just easier to say nothing right now. I’m too tired to explain the things I need from people now

Grief is similar, I get asked all the time to let them know if I need help but I'll never ask. you really just need to show up

I feel the same way about grief - I should have done more for the people that kissed loved ones. I didn’t know how to help then.

It’s really hard to know how to help when you haven’t had a child. I would text and ask how they’re doing and say let me know if you want to do something but I always feel like I’m annoying!

As a childless friend, I see the other side of this! I personally wouldn’t want people showing up unannounced when I have a newborn! So I wouldn’t do that to a friend! Just a diff perspective ❤️

I had my kids young. Now that all my “friends” are having kids I’ve learned I’m the only effort giver in my friendships.I stoped putting in effort everyone started reaching out. Im letting go

It’s even worst when your spouse is deployed and family who live 10 minutes away never visit you 💔

I still remember when my buddy since diapers girlfriend got pregnant 2 weeks before we graduated highschool. 3 of us was going to rent his grandparents house. So we did but instead of 3 it was 4. 1/2

My best friend had a baby and I went to see her one day. When she answered the door she said I’m sorry he’s with my mom. I was like I’m here to see YOU! He’s an obvious bonus

Maybe I am different cause PP I did not want a single person coming over. Drop off food sure. But I just wanted to be with my baby and no one else.

Or when you hang with them nearly every weekend for years up until you have the baby then see them twice in two months, post partum. Your first baby and they’ve had 4. No check ins, no visits or help.

We did IVF to have our son. My pregnancy was the happiest I’d ever been to that point. I have “friends” that still have never met him 16 months later. They don’t even bother to reach out

Thiiis. Truly go back and forth between fully understanding because I feel like I’ve failed my friends who became moms before me, while simultaneously feeling lonely and sad that so many of my people

I had my baby in the height of Covid while my bf brother was in a coma. I feel like we were completely forgotten about. It was so isolating and people wonder why I am still standoffish 4 years later.
