Baby Then What

4.13: 
Losing Friends in Pregnancy & Postpartum: The Group Chat Got Quiet


Listen Later

Nobody really warns you about this part of pregnancy and postpartum—but we’re gonna say it out loud.

This week, we’re getting real about what it feels like when your friendships shift after having a baby. The friends who stopped texting. The ones who bailed before your baby shower. The ones you thought would be there… and just weren’t.

We share our own stories (the messy, the painful, and the surprisingly freeing), plus yours. We’re talking about:

  • Losing friends during pregnancy and postpartum

  • The heartbreak of realizing who doesn’t show up

  • The awkwardness of making new mom friends when you barely recognize yourself

  • Why it’s not just okay, but necessary, to let go of friendships that don’t fit the mom you are now

If you’ve ever sat there holding your phone, feeling like nobody gets it anymore… if you’ve ever cried over a friend you thought was forever… or if you’ve found magic in the ones who showed up when it mattered most—this one’s for you.

You’re not crazy. You’re not alone. And you’re definitely not the only one feeling it.
