Let's put aside the fact that I feel amazingly blessed in both my personal and work life. I am so grateful that we are pregnant and about to meet our son! But, with this amazing change comes a moment of sadness for me. I do very much worry we will lose our friends because we are pregnant/having a baby...and the first of most of our friends, I might add. Most of the time I have felt pretty secure about the whole thing. In fact, I have some pretty incredible friends that have been catering to me and how uncomfortable I've been by meeting for dinner or just coming over to our house to visit. The outpouring of love has been amazing pretty much throughout my whole pregnancy journey. But, I tell you what, sometimes facebook makes you feel jealous for what you are missing. I probably wouldn't have known that a bunch of our really good friends went out until I got on facebook and saw the pictures. I feel stupid for even caring because realistically I know I couldn't have gone out. There was a lot of drinking and walking - neither of which I am very good at right now. We just went to dinner with another couple and by the time dinner was over the contractions I was getting were killing me and we had to go home. But, I guess it made me sad that we weren't even invited. See, I told you it was probably stupid but feeling left out is never a fun feeling.
I just think with this incredible event/change brings on not only happiness and excitement but a lot of scary feelings as well. I'm sure the friends we have that truly love us won't care that we have a baby and who knows...maybe having a baby will cause us to make new friends. It's strange - I'm SO EXCITED for our new lives but I'm SO SCARED at the same time.
