Freinds (23)
Having a baby is a tiring experience, to put it mildly. In the first few weeks it can be overwhelming and a constant stream of visitors doesnt help. They probably have every relative they have visiting and cant say no to them. Friends..well you can say no to friends, or at least I think you should be able to.
Friends are the ones that will be there when the novelty wears off for the relatives.

Millieh24: Whats ur definition of a friend ??
Im getting a bit pissed off of my own friends at the mo, their after haven a baby the last cupl of weeks and another friend is the godmother .. now the godmother has been in contact with me but i havent seen the baby yet and ive tried making arrangments to go see the baby but they keep making excuses and i even went out and bought the baby a present a cute little outfit when it was born ... i feel totally left out and im not the only i met one of their other friends up town earlier and the same thing has happenned to them .. some things dont add up

Gosh, it adds up perfectly Milleh.
Having been a new mum 5 times... I can tell you, they need time and space to readjust their routines and get to know the new person in the household. That's not so easily done when people are popping in and out all the time.
Just a bit of patience is required is all, their priorities have changed... and rightly so.

dont worry to much about it, becoming a parent (specially if its the 1st born) is a huge thing nd until they settle into some form of normality they wont know or see much of what goes on around them, i certainly wouldn't think its intentional on their part Im getting a bit pissed off of my own friends at the mo, their after haven a baby the last cupl of weeks and another friend is the godmother .. now the godmother has been in contact with me but i havent seen the baby yet and ive tried making arrangments to go see the baby but they keep making excuses and i even went out and bought the baby a present a cute little outfit when it was born ... i feel totally left out and im not the only i met one of their other friends up town earlier and the same thing has happenned to them .. some things dont add up

its tought after having a baby so much changes, and its hard to get used to it all. Sometimes you dont want to see anyone to come to ur door even tho its for a good reason and they all want to see the baby. mum might be sore or feeling down and just not able for it all, baby could be cross so many reasons
dont take it personally and if you really think there is a prob just go up to house a quick run and drop off the present dont stay mayb then it will sort its self out
hope u ok

this is a very self centered post, when i had my first born the last thing i wanted was a countless visitors, my partner was exhausted as was i, anyone that can't understand that is seriously lacking as a person

Well what i found after i had each of mine,was that my friends closest to me were the ones i didn't see for a bit after i had the babs, even though they were dyin to see them and me for that matter they gave me space and then when they were eventually here it meant i was able to have a decent conversation with them and actually enjoy spending time with my friends instead of being a headless wreck and not being able to string two words together...
baldydude: to old?
ffs ur only a young one

Sorry M but to me that doesnt seem to be the way a friend would behave. I think a friend would keep in touch, say they understood and would see them all when they were up to it.

Ahh behave!!!
Don't go blaming the wee mite just because he/she has taken the limelight.
You're an adult. The baby is... well... a baby, i.e. helpless and innocent.... and time consuming... and completely overwhelming.
