Anyhoo, Crummy, and Anon - many moms feel like that. I used to beat this particular drum constantly. I could have written this!<br /><br />I made a big point about saying who i was upfront - goes out! drinks! doesn't do crafts! not cutesy! <br /><br />Then I kind of let down my guard and made friends with other moms. And really, I found women like me. And I relaxed and started to see the other moms for who there were, as people. Sure, there are some assholes in the bunch, and some slaves to their children without personalities of their own, but most are real people, like me. <br /><br />Hang in there. You'll find them.Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14949581552735297007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3648090185807136154.post-4225903950665257922010-04-18T10:23:08.312+01:002010-04-18T10:23:08.312+01:00I am pre-empting that I will feel like this, I'...I am pre-empting that I will feel like this, I'm due in the summer. I cringe when I see a group of women and four or more pushchairs on their way to the swimming pool near where I work. I don't want to be friends with 'other mothers'. I've been to one physio session and the other expectant Mums did my head there and it was only for an hour! However, I don't want to make my child unsociable or lonely. I guess I'll have to brave it too. I will take a hip flask of Jack Daniels to numb the agony!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
