I am so BORED of my 'baby friends'

    It was so exciting at first, having a new group of friends who were all going to have babies around the same time. We talked every day during pregnancy and now that we have our babies all they want to do is meet up to talk about babies, babies, babies - they have no other topic of conversation.

     

    I am SO BORED. Does it get any better? My husband doesn't want me to go back to work, but is this what life with a child is like? Might as well take my brain and deep fry it now.

    Hi fed.up!  I dont have kids but a few of my friends have and most of them have dissappeared into a world of projectile vomit and diapers I dont fully understand.. But, I do have one friend who has two kids and she is totally balanced about it, she chats to her mates who have kids about hers, but she also loves coming out with me and her non baby friends and enjoy girlie nights where she is quite pleased not to talk about her kids - she likes the break. Do you have any pals who dont have baby brain that you can hang about with now and again? I think it must be nice to have support from other mums, but I totally get that you want to have a break from it now and again too...

    i remember meeting new people through work or taking a class and i almost didn't want to tell them i had a baby/young children because then the whole conversation shifted to "baby talk"

    i wanted to say hey what about me!!!

    my sister in law just had a baby, and i can't have choldren due to medical issue, so when its baby this and that i get a little upset sometimes, but when i babysit i find that i am more protective then she is of the baby it confuses me so bad, i think its just mixed emotions due to the fact i can't have kids but all the baby talk gets old quick, i remember when she was human and would tell me about her day and we'd joke about our husbands, life sure gets complicated
